I was never better than that night.
And even the fight up to the point that he got me, it was just super competitive.
Joe Rogan said something to the effect of, you can clearly see you're watching the two best lightweights we've ever seen in an octagon.
Because we were both so locked in.
So I don't know that the age made as much of a difference, because I just think that he has a lot of built-in advantages.
With his height and his reach, and he's got great timing, and he's tough, dude.
He's very tough, Shannon.
Like, I would club him upside the head, and he would just keep fighting.
See, he don't hit very hard, though, with his hands.
He does not punch hard.
No, he does not punch hard.
So I went into the fight.
I talked to Rashad Evans.
And Rashad goes, he doesn't hit hard, but he has other weapons.
So we first started fighting the first time.
