“I didn't see him training much in UFC PI but I saw him before the fight and in a fight and when I saw him like he was [holding] himself back, back, back, back, little step back, little step back. Then I thought, man, he's not right. Something's wrong, like, he's so careful. Not like last time, he's going forward, up and down, changing levels, self confident. He was totally different person, yeah.”
