It’s the fight that came about to prove, once and for all, that I deserve a shot at the belt. I have to be calm, prudent, and fight him (Brock) intelligently. I have to keep on my toes not to let myself fall into his game.”

As is the rule on the reality show, there should be plenty of provocation. I feel that’s part of it and I’ll even like it. If I understand what he says, I may even have a comeback for him! Truth is, whatever happens in the house will be settled in the octagon, that’s for sure!”
