Wrestling is one of those sports that people say develops character, but I think it shows character. To be a Division I wrestler, you have to be able to deal with the grind and be able to deal being banged up and sore and hurt, and still go out and competing and pushing yourself. I only wrestled one year in college, but I wrestled for a guy who is an Iowa wrestler.

I thought, "What the hell am I doing? As soon as I had the contract in hand, I had butterflies for weeks. We signed at the same time. When we were both coming up, I knew we would get there, and I knew we were both going to have the opportunity. It was inconceivable that it would happen at exactly the same time, and it did. It was probably one of the more special moments of my career. My parents were nervous about it when we started.

They definitely were uneasy. And then they saw the first grappling tournament we were in and realized, "Hey, they can actually do this pretty well. My mom gets pretty nervous. And so does my wife. But they are behind me percent. That first fight with Joe Lauzon, I have never been so tired. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke.
