"I blew out my knee, but I never counted myself out. I knew all I needed was that one shot and I ended up getting it. So I knew that Jiri was hesitant to come forward. And as soon as I landed my left hand he's going. It's about getting those moments."
"I felt sorry (for) him, and this is one of the biggest lessons in my life. That fight was won, I had it, it was in my hands. I saw his injury, and ... I will be back. Life is about that, learn and be better."
