Meet HFC Fighter Jake Rosenbaum
Are you training differently for this fight? I have been focusing on my standup a lot more. I’m getting more a more comfortable with my standup every day. And I think it will show in this fight.
- What are your thoughts on the plans for the UFC to add the 125lb class by the end of the year? It’s great…now we get to show our non-stop action and we have plenty of knock-outs too.
- Anyone you would like to fight? Charlie Valencia. I grew up watching him so I’m a big fan, plus it would be a good win under my belt.
- Your only loss as a pro was your first fight, how did that effect you as a fighter? Every loss makes you better even though you don’t think so at the time. It makes you look at your weaknesses differently and improve on those areas.
- What could people expect from a re-match with Josh Sampo? I could of and should have won the first time but got off my game plan. I’m a more skilled fighter now end more skilled now. There would a big difference in the re-match.
- Any predictions for Zach Harvey? My stand-up has changed and improved a lot so don’t blink!
- You improved at a fast rate who or what do you attribute to the change? I’m always working and watching everybody. I don’t take a real break from training. You can learn from anybody new or old and the instructors/partners. My instructors are the best in their perspective areas. If you wanna be the best you have to be3 working and doing more than the best guy.
- How was the transition from amateur to pro? The biggest change was the mental game which was easy to overcome…then it was back to fun!
