5K Exclusive: LC Davis won't leave it up to the judges
by Natalia Baage on March 05, 2010
top contender.

FiveKnuckles.com: You only have two losses in your career since you started four years ago. How do you feel you've progressed since then?

LC Davis: I like to think I progress with every fight. My goal since I started this has been to be a better fighter every time I fight. Every time I come out there, I want to show the fans and show my opponents different things and different techniques. I want to improve with every fight, so I think I've definitely been progressing throughout my career, and I think come March 6, I'll be the best LC Davis out there.

FiveKnuckles.com: If you could have two rematches with the only two guys to beat you, would you take them, or are you concentrating on the present and fighting in the WEC?

LC Davis: I'd love to have rematches with the guys that beat me, but I'm just taking it one fight at a time. There are tons of tough guys in the WEC at 145, so whatever's placed in front of me, I'm looking for that as my next challenge. And if I happen to get a chance to rematch those guys - great. If not, I've learned from those mistakes and I'm okay either way, you know? If I don't get the rematches, I'm not going to cry about it. But if I do get the rematches, I'd be more than willing to take the fights.

FiveKnuckles.com: Is there anyone in your division in the WEC who you do want to fight, or who you think would be a good match up for you?

LC Davis: I don't wanna call anybody out. There's just so many tough guys in the WEC at my weight. I think 145 in the WEC is loaded. I just want the top guys and continue to win, and keep working my way towards the belt.

FiveKnuckles.com: You have a degree in Exercise Science. What do you plan on doing with that degree when you're finished fighting?

LC Davis: Before I really decided to take fighting seriously and make a career out of it, I was planning on being a personal trainer or something like that. Maybe a strength and conditioning coach. So I think towards the end of my career, I wanna eventually open my own gym and maybe train fighters. I'd like to become like a Pat Miletich or a Randy Couture.

FiveKnuckles.com: And how has working with Miletich and Couture been?

LC Davis: For the past three years, I've trained with Pat Miletich in Bettendorf, Iowa. I just recently moved back home to Kansas City in December. But I still go train with Pat and the guys at Miletich, occasionally. And before my last fight, I started cross-training with Xtreme Couture in Vegas.

FiveKnuckles.com: Speaking of your move... I was watching your video blogs, and I see you're not a fan of snow.

LC Davis: Yeah, yeah! It's funny, I'm from the mid-West, so I guess I should be used to snow. But I've lived in Iowa for the last couple years. And the winters there are twice worse than the winters in Kansas City. So I was excited to move back to Kansas City to get easier winters.

FiveKnuckles.com: How's camp going?

LC Davis: It's going great....
