Las Vegas, NV– I confess. I wasn’t too enthusiastic when Mike Perry revealed his sweetheart, Latory Gonzalez, would be his only cornerman at UFC Vegas 4. I was one of the haters who called out the stupidity of having anybody in your corner who isn’t experienced in such a high-stress, uber-important task. And even as the battle was taking place and her battle “advice” was taking place, I still slammed.

Then Perry spoke with press reporters (including me) after the battle ended and I lastly got it.

” She did a excellent task. She kept it really basic, she screamed a couple of things, I heard her throughout the battle and I keep in mind informing myself, ‘Okay, here we go. You’ re entering into it now.’ And she was like ‘Keep your hand up!’ There was one time he had actually swung and simply missed out on. She stated ‘Get your hand back up!’ All. And after that in the corner, you understand when she remained in there, rubbing ice on me, she kept asking me. ‘Where do you desire [it]? What else do you desire? What can I do?’ and she was, you understand, attempting to do more for me. And it was truly cool simply sitting there peaceful and simply considering how the next round was going to go and, yeah, I did hear his coaches and I heard them stating like … I can’t believe of the word however they had like secret words for relocations. And after that, I began finding out what those were, that they were requesting for. Around the 3rd round I heard a couple of things that I heard throughout the battle. I was like, ‘Oh, I know what he’ s ready to do.’ They stated something about ‘razor’ and after that I recognized he’s tossing elbows at that time from a range. I was like ‘okay,’ and, I felt like I keep in mind believing, ‘Man, your corners could be telling you more.’ Like, they’re not informing you enough; you need to do something.’

And likewise … the heavyweights[fight] I keep in mind Gian Villante returning to his corner and after that the coach was like, ‘What are you doing? Well you’ re refraining from doing absolutely nothing!’ And it’s like, ‘Bro, you ain’ t not doing anything brother. You resting on the outside, do not can be found in here and mate.’ And after that I believe Michael Bisping was like, ‘Oh, that’ s excellent coaching.’ No, that’s dreadful! Do not make the person feel bad and down on himself. Amp him up, or offer him [something]! I suggest, begin, and they’re heavyweights, too! What do you believe he’s doing? He’s attempting to not get knocked out that must befirst I comprehend that we’re performers and we got to head out there and we got to combat, we got to place on the show, however you likewise … when you get in that cage you got, or that Octagon, you got a show bag and you got a win reward. That win reward is more crucial than placing on thatshow Since a battle’s a battle, you’re gon na combat or not, somebody’s going to bring it and the show is going to occur. If you need to be clever, technical, more patient … t’s nearly more difficult to be patient and wait for the excellent shots rather than simply go forward and simply keep getting kicked in the arms and all this. And these coaches are requesting for things, and they put people in positions to– specifically heavyweights– stroll into shots … these coaches that have not even remained in the position that their fighters remain in. That’s why I didn’t have coaches this evening since … I did. Due to the fact that she understands she hasn’t been in my position, she was ideal. She spoke from a simple viewpoint, on the outside. She kept it basic. And I didn’t need any recommendations. Possibly that was luck tonight that I didn’t. It was all the best to get this opponent, however, you understand, I have no business and I’m gon na return to the drawing board and attempt to put a team together, that we can work for upcoming occasions.

I was believing tonight like, my woman does such a excellent task generating the stool and the pail with the water. And I was like, believing, often coaches be so all set to act and simply inform you something like they believe they’re gon na make a distinction for you and they desire … it’s on their own, you understand what I suggest? They wish to feel like they informed you something that assisted you win this UFC battle. And they’re simply getting money and attention and attempting to take credit for what your work has actually done. You understand, like, brother, y’ all bring that pail and bring me that stool. You understand I’m stating? And she looked much better than any coach all-time, bringing that stool because pail. Damn, she was so quite with that little ninja face mask on– eliminating everything night long. You understand, yes, it’s excellent to keep it basic. I feel like people shout excessive and [they’re] stating things, you can’t even believe. Are you even attempting to listen to this individual? Should I stop attempting to listen to this individual? Like, listen, your words ain’t gon na make a distinction, brother. And his coaches’ words wasn’t making a distinction. Like, I remain in front of you attempting to punch you in the face. You got to handle that. That’s it. Not your coaches, not your game strategy, none of that.”

Honestly, it’s truly none of our business who a fighter requires in hiscorner It’s THEIRcorner , if they desire a panda playing the banjo that’s up to them.. They understand what’s best for their game and who are we to evaluate?
