In a one sentence summary: DC is an all around great human being. He, Kamaru and Henry have a long history, and this hour-long conversation shows you just how much shared respect these three champions have for one another. The guys hit it all in this one. DC's time as an NCAA and Olympic force, and the inspiration he was for budding fighters...Henry Cejudo and Kamaru Usman included. The Cael Sanderson rivalry, or lack thereof, as DC might say. DC's perspective on missing the 2008 Olympics and how it changed his life forever. Deeper on that subject, how does luck, motivation and preparation come together to breed success. How does showmanship and celebrity change fighter trajectory in the UFC? Speaking of celebrity: Jon Jones. DC discusses the impact that the 'baddest man on earth' (Dana's words) had on his career, we talk Jones' upcoming fight against Stipe, and where the reigning reigning Heavyweight champ sits among global athlete superstars. DC's palpable friendliness and positivity is even more appreciated when you understand the hardships he carries with him. He opens up about the loss of his daughter, and the mindset and compartmentalization necessary for surviving the heaviest of losses. Humans at DC's level have a special drive that never fully leaves them. He shares how that drive for growth has translated into life beyond the octagon. We close this one with some much deserved words of appreciation from Kamaru and Henry - and from all of us fight fans. Thank you, DC.
