Winner: Dan has a huge test in GSP, but it's a fight I think he can win. It will be tough, but he can do it. Paul could also have a hard fight against Koscheck, but I see Paul knocking him out. Only time will tell though.

FiveKnuckles.com: How do you feel about Dan Hardy being the first British fighter to step in the cage for the title?

Winner: I am over the moon for Dan. He is doing something no other Brit has. If he does win, then not only will he be the first UFC champ from the U.K, but he would have beaten one of best fighters in world.

FiveKnuckles.com: Although you are more well known as a striker, you also have a solid ground game with three wins coming by way of submission. Is this something you would like to showcase more of inside the octagon as your career progresses? Also, what steps have you taken to further improve this aspect of your game?

Winner: I train all aspects of MMA. I prefer to strike because that is where I feel I have the advantage over most of the other fighters. If the fight goes to the ground and a submission presents itself, then I will take it. I have been training my ground game more, as I am going to come across a high level of grapplers. I would like to get myself abroad for a few weeks a few times a year to really develop my grappling skills.

FiveKnuckles.com: In the past, some people have accused you of not "going for the kill" during fights. Since that time you have gone on to finish four of your last five fights. Was this an area of your game that you focused on improving, and if so, what steps did you take to do this?

Winner: Yes, in the past i didn't finish fights, and that's something I should have done. I have not really changed anything except for my mentality. Now, I am fighting in front of millions of people. I want to be able to leave the cage, win or lose, knowing that I did the best I could and that the people watching have had a chance to see the best of me.

FiveKnuckles.com: There is a lot of talk these days as to whether or not teammates should face one another. With Dan Hardy and Paul Daley both making big waves in the welterweight division, as well as Pearson and yourself looking to do the same in the lightweight division, what are the chances of seeing teammates face off? Is this something that Team Rough House is open to?

Winner: I don't think that any of us would want to fight each other, God knows how the camps would work out. If all goes well for everyone, it's something that could happen, but I doubt it will. I can only speak for myself, and the only way I will be fighting a teammate is for the belt, or for some life changing amount of money, and only if they were also happy to do it.
