I noticed the more muscle I put on, the more cushion and padding I had, the better my performances were getting. I decided I could be this little, stick-thin thing out there and be hurt all the time, or I could show my athleticism, and if it comes with a little bit of weight on the side, it is what it is. ”

I feel like - I know I talk about it all of the time. Body issues, online bullying, it is a thing. People go through it. ”

It was a great time being with Blake & Murphy. I always made sure that, even if their matches weren't going the way they wanted to, they went the way that I wanted to. ”

Bodybuilding gave me a healthy way to gain weight and learn to balance my life. Earning my pro card within a year, I got to do something I enjoyed and be healthy at the same time. ”

A lot of my inspiration comes from everyday people. ”

There are times that I see comments on Instagram and Twitter - if you are bashing my character on television, that is fine. I am totally cool with that. I'm a bad guy for a reason. You are supposed to hate me, but when you disrespect me or my work or myself as a character as me personally, that is not okay. ”

I like to say whatever comes to mind when I am in the ring and work off the reaction from the crowd. ”

It is kind of weird to walk into a Starbucks and have somebody know your name. But normal-day life really hasn't changed that much. There's just a lot more eyes on you on social media. ”

Everyone has a really short attention span nowadays with social media, our phones. Even me - I can't go without touching my phone every five minutes. ”

I'm pretty anti-social. I don't go out. ”
