“I feel like I need to get in as many fights as possible, so I don’t mind taking short-notice fights. The UFC can count on me being ready. It’s go time for me.”
“It went exactly how I thought it would go,” Daniel Rodriguez on his fight against Mike Perry
When asked about the how well the execution of the game plan went, he said, “It went exactly how I thought it would go. Going in there, I felt like we both had equally as much power. He’s a strong dude. He was able to take me down. But he’s a shorter, stockier guy, and he’s strong.
“But on the ground, he wasn’t able to cause any damage. I was able to control the position, and the second time he took me down I was able to get back on the feet. I was the faster, more technical guy. He let me work at my range and didn’t really cut off the distance too much. I was able to pick him apart.”
