An intense looking Greg Fitzgerald took to the microphone post fight and gave a little speech: 'I knew he was gonna try & use his weight to his advantage. I didn't want his fat arse laying on top of me so we hammered takedown defense this whole camp & I think it paid off. He tried using that extra fat in the clinch but I just kept my composure & waited for my angles to put him to sleep. '.
