Why Fighters Show No Mercy in the Octagon

I have, I have zero mercy in the ring. Um, I was taught by one coach, he's like, "Look, I'm a fighter who stumps other fighters' kneecaps," and a lot of people find that to be slightly unsportsmanlike, and you could cause somebody a,

a career-ending injury doing that. But the way that I was trained was like, "Hey, if somebody's punching you in the brain, your memory starts to subside, your ability to pronunciate words starts to su- su- subside.

He's trying to give you brain damage. Why not give him a limp for the rest of his life?" So it's a very dog-eat-dog world in, inside the octagon, and I think you kinda have that mentality.

You have to have that mentality going in there or else you'll get hurt.

Same thing with military. You know, those guys can't be friendly to the enemy.

They just can't. After the event, you know, buy the guy a beer, wish him all the best, but during the event it, it has to be eat or be eaten
