Most of my fights, I push the pace. I'm the aggressor.
I'm far from a saint.
In this sport, in this life, I think heart takes you a lot further than skill and technique... Just digging down deep will take you a lot further in life.
They say people from small towns have big dreams and that pretty much describes me. I had big dreams growing up and I'm still a dreamer.
My parents are hard workers and they showed me what it means to work hard. I would give a lot of the credit to my parents for where I'm at and who I am. They both worked multiple jobs to make sure me and my siblings were able to play sports and have a home. I'll never forget how hard they worked and that always motivates me.
