    • Saying "this is my house" is corny as hell considering he works for Dana like every other fighter. He can't claim the UFC as his house when he doesn't even have a belt. Neither of them are humble and should be glorified. They both have inflated egos. Mike is just insecure about being a gatekeeper but that doesn't make him fake or any less real than Dustin lmao.

  • Hearing this savage talk about being worried during the first round really puts into perspective for me the danger these guys are in. It must be the craziest rush being an elite mma fighter in a fight with another elite guy. Its as close to the feeling of someone trying to kill you as you can get to without them actually trying to kill you (though I’m sure some guys have tried.), and it’s one of the most dangerous men on the planet trying to do it! Huge respect for this guy. Not only is he one of the greatest LW’s of all time imo, he’s always so candid in his interviews and seems like really cool cat, and, more importantly, a good dude. Thank you for everything, Dustin! The fans love you and we are grateful for all the work you put in for our entertainment!
