UFC Flyweight Tim Elliott is not nearly finished fighting after his upset victory over Kai Asakura on UFC 319 on Saturday evening.
Elliott (21-13-1) took the fight to Asakura as a hunter and not necessarily a martial artists. It is something he has spoken about before as the mentality he has adopted when he competes.
“If I tried to fight Kai, he would have kicked my ass,” Elliott told Cageid Press at his post-fight scrum.
“Hij was vechtsporten en ik vocht. Dat is het verschil. Dat is de enige reden waarom ik in staat ben om te behouden. Ik ben geen krijgskist. Ik ben een jager aan het einde van de dag en ik zei dit in de vroege media. Als het niet in de UFC was, zou het in de UFC zijn in de backyard of ik zou gewoon de oude kerel zijn in de gym in de gym in de gym in de gym in de gym in de gym in de gym Being in the gym in the gym in the gym in the gym in the gym, because that is what I would do. “
From a 20 -month dismissal it was a relief for Elliott. In addition to scratching the competitive itching, it is the way he supports his family.
“This is my favorite thing in the world to do. That 653 days I was gone were 653 sad days that I couldn’t do what I love. Fighting dogs want to fight. Even if they are injured, even if they are tired, even when they are beaten. The worst for a fighting dog can’t fight,” Elliott said.
“Many people think it is cruel or unfair to see fighting dogs fighting, but fighting dogs living and breathing to fight. That is what I want to do. If I can’t fight, I have the feeling that my life is not complete.”
Many hunters say they want to leave the sport before the sport is ready with them. The sport will have to get rid of Tim Elliott before he leaves it voluntarily.
“I don’t know what the f*ck I am going to do when I retire, because I will just be a fighting dog without fighting,” he said.
‘I’m not going to retire gracefully from the UFC. They will have to tell me: ‘You have to go, man. “I’ll be here until they let me go. “
