I try to eat healthy all the time. I don't eat takeaways. I drink mostly water or coconut water.
sweet fighting serious
If I could bust out and eat anything... if I ever stop fighting, I could put on some serious weight with sweets.
fighting training consistent
My diet is usually pretty consistent whether I'm training for a specific fight or not. I don't like to mess too much with it.
fighting psychological
A fight is mental, not just physical and psychological warfare is absolutely part of that.
fighting animal people
There are people who have great skills, who do great things, but don't embody the whole animal that is the fight game like I do.
fighting
Late switches are part of fighting and I've handled them all.
fighting shy term
I won't ever shy away from a fight and if it makes sense down the road, I'll do it. But it will be on my terms.

People say that I'm a boxer. I actually started with kick boxing, and then I moved onto boxing, and then I moved onto grappling.

As far as I'm concerned, I just speak the truth.
animal
I don't use machines - animals don't use machines.
brilliant cage came european forever giving grateful great guys platform warriors
Cage Warriors is a brilliant organisation. They're doing great things for European MMA, and they're giving the platform for guys like me who came through. They're vital. I'm forever grateful for the opportunities I got.
overcoming speed enough
Power and speed aren't enough to overcome someone who is strategic, who knows what you'll do before you do it and can turn it on you; someone who is mentally engaged and combines the whole package.
carry represent time
I carry the flag of Ireland all the time. I want to represent my country.
style obsessed train
I feel it when I need to train and I do what I feel like I need to do. I don't get obsessed with one style or one skill.
