The fear is there, but it's like how much they controlled you.

I think I was a lot more confident than fearful, for sure, walking into that fight.

I was pretty confident that I could beat him.

Where's the source of that confidence?

My belief on me is I can take the world.

Okay, if I never had fought before, you know, suddenly walk into a fight with someone like that, then would I be that confident?

I mean, probably no.

You know, so that history of what, you know, what we've been doing, what we've been achieving does give you confidence.

If that was my first fight ever, I wouldn't, probably I wouldn't be that confident.

But the time off?

Yeah, the training will tell you how you are.

Yeah, I mean, I trained normal.

Let's say compared to the first fight, the second one was a lot more confident because, you know, like I said on training, the training for the first fight, it was terrible.

What do you mean?

I think I was...

focused on MMA for a while, for a couple of months, and I wasn't really focused on the Gi.

And by the time I accepted the fight and started training, all my responses on training were off.

All my training partners that I used to train with that I destroyed.

I mean, now they're beating me.

It's like I cannot beat them the way I was used to.
