Lättviktaren Myles Jury har en gedigen lista över fighters som han har mött i buren och besegrat. Vad sägs om Chris Saunders, Michael Johnson, Ramsey Nijem och Mike Ricci? Och nu senast en seger över Diego Sanchez vid lördagens UFC 171. I ett uttalande för MMAjunkie, som ägde rum efter matchen vid Dallas American Airlines Center, säger Myles Jury följande:
I always thought it would be cool to fight (Takanori) Gomi or Diego, but I just fought Diego, so I can cross that one off. I felt like I performed really good tonight. I did what I trained to do, and yeah, I crossed a little hump there. Diego’s a household name; anybody that knows MMA knows Diego. So I was happy about it, and what’s next is up to my management and the UFC. I was just thinking, ‘Keep doing what you’re doing’. I was bloodying and beating him up pretty good. But sometimes when you get out there, it is tempting to get into a little bit of a brawl, so I was just making sure I was sticking to the game plan and keep piecing him up.
