I can fix that.

So I always thought I could beat someone.

I think as a fighter, you should.

You know, you should always think, oh, yeah, I'm going to beat that guy.

I mean, I don't know.

I think the biggest difference is that when we came out, I came into the sport, right?

UFC 17 was my first one.

17.

And my first MMA mixed fight was in 97.

And then I fought in UFC 98.

But...

the biggest thing back then is we were trying to figure out how to train like how to mix it like everybody everybody was coming from one discipline and and learning the other two like for me i had one of the advantages i had in the beginning is i came from wrestling and striking i came from wrestling and kickboxing karate background and and so i i had two and i had to learn the third

You know, so, but we're learning how to just train.

How do you spar?

Right.

And yeah, so these are guys are getting better.

You know, I mean, if you go look at leg locks back then,

Most of these, the leg locks were so basic.

Some of these they got away with.

You couldn't get away with those nowadays.
