    the fact that jon anik lays no traps for some "clickbaiting titles" and gives dustin respect and privacy without forcing him to answer is just great to see. i mean who says "no comment is ok too" that is soo damn refreshing to hear. this is what it really looks like when someone who cares about fighters, interviews a fighter. no baiting, no phony "journalism" tricks. it also helps that jon anik is the best hands down.

    These guys are just built different. I'm 35, fought amateur until I was 29. Then I had neck and back surgery and it was all over. Now I'm a shell of what I was, I juries cought up to me. My genetics aren't the same as these guys. They are a special breed. I know I'm tuff, but these boys are gladiators
