A: I have no words for my opponent - he knows what I'm going to do to him. Obviously, Cincinnati is kind of a hometown for me; Cincinnati is in the Midwest and I'm in the Midwest and I've been to Cincinnati half a dozen times to train with Rich Franklin, (who's) one of my best friends.

I just feel like there's a home team advantage for me and for Rich and a couple other guys fighting, and I'm happy to be fighting in the Midwest and glad to have Cincinnati supporting me and the rest of my boys.
