Q - What are your thoughts on the fight? Are you happy with the result?
A - I felt like I stuck to the gameplan pretty well. I got to show off that I'm not a one trick pony with that single leg there. To all the doubters, I got some decent power in these fists here! Overall, very satisfied with how it turned out.
Q - What do you think of your opponent?
A - Tough cookie. He took lots of shots, but wouldn't go down. He was a lot more aggressive than my first opponent. Was trying hard to finish the fight! Thank goodness, that guy has heart!
Q - Did anyone impress you on the card tonight?
A - Again, Bimbo looked absolutely amazing. And Angelo Mendoza.. showing off the well rounded game. Boy, he's gonna be a bonafide superstar, you heard it from me first! Oh, and shout out to Hubert Finley.. that guy is one crazy sonuva gun!
Q - Were you happy you were able to get the finish?
A - Always. Fans come to watch us fighters finish fights, or a war. But I think they always love a good knockout!
Q - Who would you like to fight next...call someone out!
A - Too cliched. I'll fight whoever the big guy up top wants me to fight!

Q - It took you a while to really get settled in it seems. You guys went almost a full minute without action and you seemed frustrated...talking to him in the cage. What were you saying in there? A -
Q - He did come after you a bit, but he literally landed no shots. Was this a cakewalk for you? A -

Q - Right now there's three 2-0 fighters in the division. The other two are Tom Tortilla and Angelo Mendoza. Of those two, who do you find more impressive and why?
A - Oh, I see someone hasn't been following me lately. Nothing but praise for Angelo. Tortilla isn't too shabby either. Angelo is just a monster.. just watch his fights. Enough said.
Q - It took you a while to really get settled in it seems. You guys went almost a full minute without action and you seemed frustrated...talking to him in the cage. What were you saying in there?
A - Yeah, I apologize to my fans there. I guess I got a little to caught up in the moment. I was just asking him what's the deal with tentacles and I guess he got upset.
Q - He did come after you a bit, but he literally landed no shots. Was this a cakewalk for you?
A - Can't say anything is a cakewalk these days.. I'd figure someone will crucify me for saying it once I'm no longer a winner. But yes, I'd figure it was more of me coming in more prepared.
Q - How does a fight go with Angelo Mendoza?
A - I'd figure it'd be a stand up war. One of us is going to get knocked out.. that's for sure.
Q - How does a fight go with Tom Tortilla?
A - Tortilla has shown some wrestling ability. I'd figure he tried to take me down and get to work on the ground. I'd try to keep it standing, I'd figure either a decision or a KO. I ain't going out without a fight.

Q - You've had two very different fights now in the cage. In one fight, you completely dominated the stand up to a decision. And in this fight, you completely dominated the ground. Did you change up your strategy for this fight?
A - I wanted to mix things up. I could tell that first takedown hurt him to the body a bit so I thought i'd try to finish him with ground and pound.
Q - At this point, do you feel your striking or your grappling is stronger?
A - I'm strong everywhere.
Q - Give us your thoughts on the fight...were you happy you were able to get the submission win?
A - I actually won by TKO. I wish I could have finished him sooner, but i'm happy with the fight. He didn't hit me once. So i'm healthy and ready to fight again as soon as possible.
Q - This seems to be a talented FW division. Talk about some of the other featherweights on the card tonight.
A - I saw Mark Meloncholy's fight before I came here. He fought through an eye poke and won a decision. He seems like a tough guy but i'm sure I can beat him.
Q - What's next for Omar Romero?
A - An amateur championship is on my list of goals, but i'm not against turning pro soon. If the money's right.

A - He's garbage. Absolute merde! What you think little man?
Q - We could see some strikes, takedowns, and a submission. Do you have it all?

For Joonas Toom:
Q - So apparently you used to be a sumo wrestler? Or still are? Tell us about that.
A - I have retired from sumo to pursue mixed martial arts full time. I am a three time Estonia national sumo champion. I competed professionally in Japan but was unable to win a grand tournament.
Q - So in your fight...you managed to win without landing a single blow or scoring any submission attempts.....do you feel you did enough to earn the win?
A - With my opponent gouging my eyes and the referee standing me up from top position I felt like I was fighting two men. I earned my win.
Q - Is your style mainly about takedowns and control? Are you working on your boxing and submission skills?
A - It's all very new to me but I'm working on all aspects of mixed martial arts.
Q - Do you look for the finish in fights?
A - The three minute rounds go by very quickly. I'll be more aggressive next time.
Q - Will your MMA career be as successful as your sumo career?
A - My goal is to be a world champion. Something I didn't achieve in sumo.

For Jack Four
Q - What are your thoughts on the fight? Are you happy with the result?
A - Happy? I'm beyond happy. I was able to fight MY game with MY rules. That was MY arena tonight. I came with a plan, and that plan was to be DOMINANT. Some have said that I was bluffing about my abilities... Never underestimate the Wildcard.
Q - What do you think of your opponent?
A - My opponent, hmm... Ruas, right? He came out with a plan. Granted, he was afraid of his own plan, but he had one! But that fear he had while looking at me from the very beginning was what started his end this evening.
Q - Did anyone impress you on the card tonight?
A - The only other fighter to watch for me is that Myles Griffith fellow. He started out well, but decided he just wanted to nap for the rest of the match, just laying around with ... what's his face. I expected more.
Q - Were you happy you were able to get the finish?
A - Of course I was. It was smart of the ref to stop it when he did. A couple more shots and that boys leg might have broken.
Q - Who would you like to fight next...call someone out!
A - Maybe next time. We will just see who they send my way...

Ross "We were on a" Break
Q - What are your thoughts on the fight? Are you happy with the result? A - It was great to get another win under the belt and to finish it off in such style is fantastic.
Q - What do you think of your opponent? A - I've fought tougher punching bags than him. He didn't land a single hit. I was messing about with him by the end and decided to pull something out of my bag of tricks to entertain the crowd.
Q - Did anyone impress you on the card tonight? A - I'm focused solely on myself on the night so I don't have time to be worrying about the other fights.
Q - Were you happy you were able to get the finish? A - Ecstatic, I was disappointed I couldn't do the same in the first fight. I've been working on my jiu-jitsu a lot recently, so to be able to pull out a bit of skill like that in a competitive fight is great.
Q - Who would you like to fight next...call someone out! A - I'll take anyone on, judging by the card though there were no other middleweight bouts this time round. Seems like they've all already ran in fear.
Howard McGregor Q - What are your thoughts on the fight? Are you happy with the result? A - Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I was a bit nervous in the first found with it being my first fight. Gerlach was impressive in his first fight so I was a bit tentative and it led to me losing the round. I gained confidence as the fight went on though, as can be seen by my dominant performance in the third round.
Q - What do you think of your opponent? A - I saw him successfully take down his previous opponent on a number occasions but my work in preparation at the abattoir ensured he could not do the same to me. He likes to get close and throw punches in bunches so I worked him on the outside and looked to pick him apart. He was a good first fight and I look forward to moving up the rankings now.
Q - Did anyone impress you on the card tonight? A - Did you see Ross Break's finish? That was unbelievable.
Q - Are you unhappy you didn't get the finish? A - You always want to get the finish so of course it is a disappointment.
Q - Who would you like to fight next...call someone out! A - Whoever is willing to step into the abattoir.

Q - Have you been working on your ground game? Do you think he gave up because you hurt him with strikes? A - I have been working on it, thanks for noticing. I definitely think he went to the ground to keep from being hit.Q - He's Brazilian...so were you expecting more from him on the ground? A - He may be Brazilian, but I waxed him! Q - How do you feel the other heavyweights on the card did? Is there anyone you'd like to match up against? A - I'm impressed by Bimbo, but I'm just taking it one fight at a time. I'll face anyone.

Mark Meloncholy
Q - What are your thoughts on the fight? Are you happy with the result? A - You know what, dog? That wasn't my best effort, bro, but I'll take it. I gave him a round because of lack of focus. Once I get the focus under control I will be good.
Q - What do you think of your opponent? A - No problem man. He put up a good fight. He took this fight on short notice, and I respect him for that. Good on him.
Q - Did anyone impress you on the card tonight? A - You know, Bimbo Jackson was really good. Impressed by his skill on the ground.
Q - Were you happy you were able to get the finish? A - No comment, bitch
Q - Are you unhappy you didn't get the finish? A - Yeah, man. Every night I go in the cage, I want to knock the other guy out, you feel me, dog? But whatever.
Q - Who would you like to fight next...call someone out! A - That's not up to me. I want to move up the rankings.
