UFC middleweight Josh Fremd was disappointed with his victory earlier this month over Jamie Pickett but is focused on the positives after earning a new UFC deal and given a matchup with Roman Kopylov at Noche UFC, the promotion’s inaugural celebration of Mexican Independence Day, set to take place on September 16 in Las Vegas.
(Note: Apologies for the unfortunate microphone issues beginning in the second half of the interview, but given Fremd’s audio was unaffected, we elected to publish the video in full.)
