Andy Ogle: I should have been cut a long time ago
Andy Ogle: “If anything Sean Shelby’s my best friend. He f-cking loves me because I should have been cut a long time ago.”
Andy Ogle has lost five of his six bouts since coming of the Ultimate Fighter Live Season, but he is super thankful to still be in the UFC:
The pessimist side is I was on the shelf for a long time, and I thought, ‘Aw, Sean Shelby doesn’t like me, he hates me, and he doesn’t’ want me to fight.’ Ogle told MMAjunkie. F-ck, the optimist side, he could have cut me f-cking a long time ago. He could have cut me. … If anything Sean Shelby’s my best friend. He f-cking loves me because I should have been cut a long time ago.
In the nearly 10 months since his last bout, Ogle has made changes to his career. The most crucial was the relocation of his training camp from his native England to Sacramento’s Team Alpha Male.
Whether you lose by an inch or a mile, you still lose, so I had to make a change, Ogle said. I had to change things up. I’ve been enjoying training, and I’ve been helping some of the best guys in the world with their fights.
