Q - What is your strategy coming into the fight? A - Eer, the same as usual really. Pick apart my opponent on da feet and get the quick victory.
Q - AFC is an amateur event, does that the match isn't as important for you as if it were a pro bout? A - Well, de amateur tournaments are coming up and going into them without any momentum would be tough so in my opinion it is more important for us amateurs to be winning now then any other time to date.
Q - Are there any other fighters on the card that you're looking forward to watching? A - I will be watching Michael Carter who is apparently ranked higher den me by Top Rank. But what main event has he ever been part of? Regardless he is a top guy in my weight class and I need to find the holes in his game so that I can expose them one day. I'll also been keen to see how Gunnar bounces back from his tough split decision loss.
Q - How confident are you heading into the fight? A - How about you tell me how confident you would be if you were undefeated and main eventing for the second time in your career before even turning pro.
Q - What is your prediction for the fight? What method and round? A - I am still looking for dat ko in the first round baby.
Q - Tell us what your thoughts are on fighting here in Ireland? A - I cannot even put it into words. Growing up here, Ireland has been nothing but amazing when showing me support. The Irish are real warriors, it has been in our blood for centuries. After I finish my opponent tonight I will raise the Irish flag to my home country and de will thank me for giving Ireland anoder victory.

Hey Mr O'Donnell! Care to answer a couple questions for the media here?
- Headlining in your home town! Must be great! Any butterflies at all? - This is your second headlining draw, your first being AFC Japan 2. It feels like the promotion is heavily pushing you to become the next star! How do you feel about this? Rumor has it that it's drawing the ire of other fighters, who feel as if they're more deserving, or that the promotion is playing favorites with you. - Your opponent Fedor Wolowitz has proven to be a very tough opponent on numerous occasions, having survived the onslaught of dominant FW prospect Omar Romero. I know you've stated that you're planning to put him away in the first round. I'm sure there's a possibility that it may happen, but whats plan B? - I apologize if I had offended you in any way with my early episode of Top Rank! Truly I tried to stay as unbiased as possible. Fellow FWs Melancholy and Michael Carter are also on the card! Perhaps after this event the rankings will shake up a bit! But I'm glad you took the time to read it! It really means a lot! - Not to take the spotlight way from you, but as you may know, Cannon Mendoza's split decision loss has sent waves throughout the MMA community. Let me get your take on that fight. Was he robbed? Fair decision? I know you've already answered those questions in an earlier interview, but I'd like to hear it in person! Mendoza was also seen calling you out yet again! Looks like the beef hasn't been settled yet!
Any who, thank you for your time. I'm sure the home town crowd will give you a thunderous welcome. It's already giving me chills how loud the stadium is going to get. The 'Notorious One' everyone! Good luck against Fedor!

- Headlining in your home town! Must be great! Any butterflies at all? I mean, wit' every victory that I achieve I gain more and more confidence. I truly believe that I can defeat anyone in dis division. I think that this is a good time to have a main event in my home of Ireland.
- This is your second headlining draw, your first being AFC Japan 2. It feels like the promotion is heavily pushing you to become the next star! How do you feel about this? Rumor has it that it's drawing the ire of other fighters, who feel as if they're more deserving, or that the promotion is playing favorites with you. I t'ink de problem is that these guys do not promote or compete as good as me. Cannon has good a good push as well and I will give credit where it is due. He knows da business and knows that you must entertain both in and out of the cage in this game. Most of these guys say very little in da build to the fight and then put on a lackluster show. I earned dis spot. Try and take it and you will leave in the back of an ambulance.
- Your opponent Fedor Wolowitz has proven to be a very tough opponent on numerous occasions, having survived the onslaught of dominant FW prospect Omar Romero. I know you've stated that you're planning to put him away in the first round. I'm sure there's a possibility that it may happen, but whats plan B? The promotion keeps giving me very hard guys to finish. Plan A, B, and C are all to finish the fight in the first. But, if he takes a beating and the ref lets him keep taking it I will just send him to the morgue post match instead.
- I apologize if I had offended you in any way with my early episode of Top Rank! Truly I tried to stay as unbiased as possible. Fellow FWs Melancholy and Michael Carter are also on the card! Perhaps after this event the rankings will shake up a bit! But I'm glad you took the time to read it! It really means a lot! I like you Antik, you write good shit. *haha* I t'ink I am number one but just based off experience I understood putting Romero and Jackson ahead of me. Michael Carter though? We have da same experience level and look what I have accomplished. Second main event baby, Im da money fight.
- Not to take the spotlight way from you, but as you may know, Cannon Mendoza's split decision loss has sent waves throughout the MMA community. Let me get your take on that fight. Was he robbed? Fair decision? I know you've already answered those questions in an earlier interview, but I'd like to hear it in person! Mendoza was also seen calling you out yet again! Looks like the beef hasn't been settled yet! I t'ink dat he was not efficient with his shots. His opponent overwhelmed him with strikes and was able to do more damage with an accumulation of punches. Cannon landed at a very low success rate and against a guy like me would be devastating for him. I believe that the judges got their job right on that night but I would love to see a rematch to make sure.
