    I'm glad Tony doesn't victimize himself. Ariel really makes it easy to.

    Tony is the jewel in the UFC crown. Think about it, there is no one like him, self trained, everything hes about is about unpredictability, he's a deeply intelligent and complex fighter. I hope he still gets the respect he deserves and what he bought to UFC.

    This was an awesome interview! Tony is a great role model and a strong individual. His ability to self reflect and improve is impressive.
