(Pictured, File Photo), on “It’s
Time,” discussing a mistake he made against Dominick
Cruz:
“I really feel like I got caught up in trying to knock Dominick out. Because when you’re in a grudge match like that where there’s animosity and something to prove, it gets down to the most brutal stuff and you want to try to knock the guy out. I think I could have been a little bit smarter, especially considering that it did go to a decision and taking that into account, but I don’t want to lose that edge of just trying to go for the kill.”
