Legacy FC champ talks about his upcoming fight and more......
Derrick Lewis recently spoke with MMAjunkie about his upcoming title defense against Ricky Shivers at Legacy FC 18 and more. Check out the highlights:
On where he'd be if not in MMA: "If it wasn't for MMA, I'd be doing a lot worse stuff than what I've been doing."
On using his aggression in the cage: "I really, really try to kill my opponents, even though I know I can't do it because the ref is there. But that's my intention every time."
On going to jail after assulting a KKK member who insulted him in 2005 and then violating his probation: "The lifestyle I was living, I didn't really care."
On Shivers: "He's been doing martial arts since he was in high school, so it will feel real good beating a guy like that."
