QUOTABLE: “One thing I’ve always been good at is my movement. Whether it’s my lateral movement or my acceleration to get to the next level or pull, I think that’s something that I’ve always had and has always helped me. I would say that my hand placement and my punching is something I really want to work on and improve. Also, just making sure I’m doing the right moves at the right time. I’ve always been working to improve my technique over the years and I’ll continue to do that.”
