What's there to say here?
You got a future in this business, kid. You're not going to realize that future come Tuesday, but if you ply your craft after you lose at the Opening Salvo, you'll be going places. Unfortunately, there is a major downside to your freshness in this business: you don't know how to sacrifice. You don't know it yet. Give it a few more years and you fucking will. But don't worry, I'll take you school so you can learn what it REALLY means to be a fighter in this business; what it truly takes to win the gold that you will be denied in the Scramble.
Your lesson begins now.
I have no fucking doubt that you are what you say you are: an athlete. But, right now, that is ALL YOU ARE. You haven't been molded into the cold, merciless, killing machine you'll need to become to face off against me or be a champion. Yes, you are a calculating, submissions specialist with a whole hell of a lot of discipline.
But when it comes to these matches ...discipline is a MAJOR problem and drawback for you.
When competing for the World Gold, there is no such God Damn thing as discipline, there is no such God Damn thing as technical. There is no such fucking thing as a five star match by Dave shitheel meltzer. When you are in the thick of it, so close to the God Damn gold and there is just one bitch standing in front of you between it, you have nothing but the need to be the champion and one important thing that you don't have yet ...DESPERATION. You don't have the ability to know that you are being outmatched and to grab a weapon to beat the odds. You want to win it on merit alone and some of these matches, these women won't be beat by that. I WON'T BE BEAT BY THAT! When I get in there on Tuesday, my mission is to get that shot for the Revolutionary title AT ANY FUCKING COST! As I always have been, I am willing to life and limb to take that title. Are you? Or are you going to be too considered with your technique and keep your offensive? Let me tell you something, for as good as your chokehold is, once you are on defense, you are going to struggle. When you are so close to losing, you have to throw technique out the door and give your opponent whatever you have left in the tank. You have to use all your surrounding environment to your advantage. You have to forget the rules and just survive to the next second.
I've been surviving to the next second for decades. I've been sacrificing my body and letting desperation keep in my matches forever.
Again, I think you have potential kid, but that reliance on your style is going to kill you in these big matches ...and I'm going to take advantage of that because those chains don't hold me back. When the chips are down in that scramble, I will not hesitate to find the nearest weapon to take the submission specialist out ...while all you know are those submissions.
But don't get me wrong, I am not taking you lightly. I know that you are the biggest threat I have in this damn match. But as I said, I am willing to use whatever reserves I have to fight you. I am willing to throw out all of my inhibitions and give you EVERYTHING I have. I am willing to let desperation prevent me from tapping. I am willing to believe that my need to hold that Revolutionary title is bigger than the pain you are going to put me through. I am willing to sacrifice everything to overcome your offensive. I am willing to go through all of that to win this scramble.
...and all you will have is your conditioning and discipline to battle that.
It just won't be enough this time, kid-o.
