00:00Now, as you sit there as the champion, is there anybody that you think should get that

00:08first shot?

00:09Is it just whoever they put in front of you?

00:11Is there any, you know, bad blood between anybody that's been talking smack that you

00:14want to, you know, show them why you are the champ?

00:16What is the outlook now for you with that title?

00:19Man, I would say the outlook is kind of nice because now that I have the title, it's up

00:24to them to come to me, you know, which is a good feeling.

00:28I haven't really thought much past, like, who's next.

00:32I'm just leaving it open.

00:33I want to see what BKFC has to say.

00:37You know, there's a possibility it could be a weight change.

00:39I know Feldman mentioned that.

00:42There's plenty of contenders, so I just want to stay busy.

00:44You know, through my entire career, I've never turned down a fight, so I'm open to any of

00:48them.

00:49Obviously, I want the one that pays the most, so I'm excited to see what's coming up, but

00:53right now I have no idea.

00:56A weight change, down in weight, or, I mean, I'm probably, I wouldn't figure an up in weight

01:00to heavyweight, go down in weight to light heavy and fight a guy like Jared Ward or,

01:04you know, some of those guys?

01:05What's the talk there with the weight change?

01:07No, yeah, I couldn't go down anymore.

01:09It would have to be up, unless they wanted to come up.

01:13For me, you know, I had my UFC career at 185, and my body just can't cut the weight anymore.

01:18Too old, you know?

01:21Yeah, over the years, like, it got harder and harder and harder for me to cut, you know,

01:26below 200-ish.

01:28I could get there.

01:29The money would have to be a lot, but hitting 185 isn't possible for me anymore.

01:35So heavyweight, that'd be interesting.

01:36A lot of names up there.

01:37That could be very interesting, of course.

01:39You know, and I hear you on the, you start getting older, that weight doesn't come off

01:44as easy.

01:45I'm living that life, for sure, right now, so I'm sure that'll be a lot harder to drop

01:48that weight, and we look forward to seeing what's next for you, whether it is defending

01:51this title or maybe taking a shot at some of the big boys up at heavyweight.

01:55That could be interesting and present some great matchups as well, but, you know, for

01:59now, I'm sure it's just enjoying life and, you know, enjoying that title, but you're

02:04doing plenty of that beforehand.

02:05I saw some of the great trips you've been on, you know, backpacking out in Wyoming,

02:11doing different things like that that you have.

02:13What's some of the things that you keep, you know, looking forward to now as you probably

02:17get, you know, some time off, but hopefully not too much?

02:22Yeah, you know, traveling is one of my favorite things to do.

02:24I know you mentioned earlier that I'm usually on the Denver cards, and maybe we'll see me

02:29on some other ones, and, you know, that's definitely on my list.

02:32If I can travel and fight so I get paid and also get to see the world, then that's the

02:38best of both worlds for me.

02:39I've heard BKFC is looking at going to Italy, in Rome, which would be amazing.

02:44You know, my grandparents were, they immigrated from there, so it would be, you know, a really

02:49cool experience to go there and fight, but yeah, right now, for Thanksgiving, I'm going

02:54to take a trip, my girlfriend and I, and just do our own thing for Thanksgiving, so right

02:59now we're deciding today actually where we're going to go.

03:02Somewhere tropical and warm, though, because Colorado's starting to get cold.

03:06Sounds like a good plan.

03:07I mean, if they're fighting in Italy, they could arrange those dates just right.

03:10I mean, I know you got that trip coming up to Greece next year.

03:13That could be perfect.

03:14Just a little, you know, jolt around the Mediterranean, maybe cruise from one to the other.

03:17That would be perfect.

03:19Yeah, absolutely.

03:20Maybe just bounce all over Europe, you know?
