“You have to have like a bit of amnesia both on the winning side and the losing side of this thing... On the losing side you need to be able to forget a loss to be able to move on and to be successful in your next fight. But on the winning side you need to be able to forget a win so you don't get stuck in this pattern of like, "I'm unstoppable". So there has to be a level of amnesia for a fighter.” NeedsAbleMovingFightingNextWinningBitsSidesLossForgetLevelsSuccessfulLosingPatternsStuckFighterBeing SuccessfulMmaAmnesiaUnstoppable Author:Rich Franklin
“I was just happy the fight was over, I knew my arm was broken in the fight. I definitely wasn't going to quit - I've broken bones before and continued fighting but there was a part of me wondering how I was going to.....what strategy I was going to use, to win this fight with a broken left arm in the second and third rounds” UseFightingWinningLeftWonderBrokenArmsThirdsStrategyRoundsBonesQuittingBroken Bone Author:Rich Franklin

“When I go to throw a punch, actually, my intention is to hit somebody. That's just second nature to me. So you have to just rewire yourself. It's not something where you have to sit and subconsciously think about it, but you kind of have to just put yourself in that mode and go with it. Learning the fight scenes, I've never had to learn choreography before, so learning the fight scenes was like learning a dance or something like that. I had a little bit of influence in the fight scenes and I tried to put as much influence there as I could, but I had fun doing it.” ThinkingKindFightingFunInfluenceSceneIntentionChoreographyHad FunI Had Fun Author:Rich Franklin
