Do you enjoy playing any other sports for fun? Do you even have time?

Are you a good cook? If you aren't that great, do you have a go to meal for date night?

What is your ideal Sunday when you don't have a fight coming up?

Thanks for giving us your valuable time!! Good luck against Tyron!

Huge fan, Mr. Wonderboy.

We have all heard over and over since your fight with Tyron that he abandoned his wrestling, and isn't sure why. Do you buy that, or do you think something that you did made him more reluctant to close the distance and shoot?

I know you and GSP are friends, but if you were offered a title defense against him would you accept?

Have you done any gameplanning for Demian Maia? That seems like it would be one of your toughest matchups in the division. Your TDD has been shown to hold up for the most part, but his chain takedowns have proven to be a hard puzzle to solve. You obviously don't have to tell us how you'd approach him, but have you thought about it?

You're one of the "good guys" of the sport - Someone who always behaves gentlemanly and with class at a time when the powers that be are pushing fighters to act more arrogantly and dramatically as a way to sell more tickets and PPVs.

Do you feel any pressure or difficulty in changing the way you behave in order to "sell" your fights?

Damn, I'm late to the party. But good job guys, you have already asked all the questions I had.

But I'll add that I'm a big fan and I hope you get to wear that gold belt soon! You showed that you have the heart of a champion, and I think you're one of the best representatives of the spirit of martial arts. Best of luck, looking forward to this fight!

Big fan here and good luck at 209.

How do you deal with pre-fight jitters/nervousness?

I heard that backstage Cain has an unnatural aura to him, so sticking with the theme of intimidating fighters who comes off as the most intimidating backstage and in general? Not that I expect you to be intimidated by anyone as you fight for a living, but i'm sure there's a difference between standing next to Ariel Helwani and Francis Ngannou.

Besides combat sports what are you most passionate about in life (hobbies, interests, activities, etc)?
