When I was young, I didn't know a lot about Liverpool, but when I was coming here, my father told me about the history of the club.

My dad loved Deco as a player. He started calling me Deco as a nickname around the house.

I'm the kind of person who thinks that if I score eight goals in one season, my objective must be to score nine goals in the following season. That's the kind of mentality I have.

I'm someone who has this real winning mentality.

Wrestling is different than MMA or boxing or really any other contact sport in that you can't really draw along an opponent.

I miss both of my parents terribly every day, but especially as we approach Thanksgiving. We always came together as a family for that holiday, playing capture the flag and touch football and laughing a lot.

Even now I want to keep my amateur spirit, to spend my time, to be in the sport with all my heart.

There's that old journalism rule that sunshine is the great disinfectant - which is how reporters bust their way into meetings and such all the time. In sports, I really think winning is the great disinfectant.
