When I came down to the lab 10 years ago, no one in the gym pointed and said, oh, that's the next guy. That's going to be the next champ. No one thought that of me. I always believed that I had the self-belief that I was going to be it, but no one in the gym was like, that's the guy. There's guys here that are still amateurs that they just got to put in the work. It's not like...

One stud comes in and they're like, all right, we're getting him in the UFC. There's guys that have been training for four or five years who are amateur, turn pro, 3-0, 4-0 right now. You grappled with one of them, Ezra, today. He's a stud. He's going to be on the contender series soon. He's going to be in the UFC soon. It takes so much to really become that next guy.

People can get in the UFC, have great careers, and just never make it to that point to where you're the fucking man. God. Getting to that point is so hard. Fuck.

I think the Eddie Wineland knockout. I got in the UFC, fought Terry Unwear December 2017. I fought three, four months later. I fought Andre Sukumta. It was my first pay-per-view. I wasn't headlining it. I was opening up the pay-per-view. Broke my foot. And, like, I got a lot of fans from that. Broke my foot. Three minutes left in the fight. Hopping on one foot. Still fighting.

Like, my fan base shot up. Had a two-year layoff. Came back. Fought Jose Quinones. Knocked him out in the first round. It was a big deal, but not that big of a deal. Next fight, that was in March. Next fight was June 5th. No, June 6th, which is 2020 June 6th, which is going to be five years damn near to the day I fight Rob in the rematch, June 7th, 2025.

First time I colored my hair, had the rainbow hair, and slept him. One of the most beautiful walk-off knockouts, in my opinion, of all time. Just beautiful. Slept him in the apex. It was completely quiet. You could literally hear him snoring. That was when I was like, okay. I'm going to become a star.

But that was how long ago? That was that same year. Or no, that was the next year. I think it was 2021. That was the, yeah, it was 2021 because I fought Eddie Wineland and I fought Cheeto. That Cheeto fight was a co-main event. Which was a huge spot for me. UFC 252, I think. I fought co-main event and it was DC versus Stipe. Massive opportunity for me. And the first fight with Chido happened.
