“The feeling of the debut was perfect. It was inexplicable. My first knockout and in an event I had been preparing for my entire career. I thought I was ready, mature, experienced, I had already had ups and downs. Getting into the event was also difficult, I had to impress Dana White twice, on 'Looking for a Fight' and on 'Contender Series'”, said Gilbert.
