“Well, let's see: it went from zero to 100 very quickly. To be honest with you, I didn't expect it. Obviously we are ready to protect ourselves at all times. The first thought was, 'Okay, he just put his hands on me. What will happen now? Did he invade my space?'. But obviously he backed off. I was pushed and we both started walking towards the center of the octagon. He started taking off his coat and I thought, 'Okay, now what? Are we going to fight here?'. We never know what is about to happen. We're on a reality show, but it's also two guys who want to fight each other. I was ready for anything. I was ready to fight right there if I needed to, but let's be honest: we're on a reality show,” said the American.
