Pretty honest interview

 

[allibaster]

he just gained a lot of respect in my book. humility is a vastly under appreciated quality.

 

[DutchStandupMMA]

he is humble always way respectfull his opponents i like his attitude.

 

[thewhiteSRR]

the countdown made me really like him a lot. He's got a fan in me, cool guy

 

[Cowlevel]

I look forward to him fighting constantly (no pun intended). This boosts his character imo so now I'm definitely more of a fan.

 

[VorTeX Raptor]

Pretty good interview. Will root for him

 

[RawDawgBob]

Good dude.

 

[brazilianblood]

hunt is one humble dude too

Yeah, the countdown made me a bigger fan. I like how he said "I wasn't good enough for the TUF show" instead of the typical "I was sick, cracked skull, torn knee, broken arm".

Exactly right. I dig that. Admits he wasn't ready, decided to get better instead.

 

[Sabre420]

Ive always liked him too. He is so respectful of his opponents.

 

[kpt018]

Awesome dude and a really damn good fighter. Go Long Island.

 

[Dreaming Dead]

Soft spoken.

Pete Spratt was also offered a fight against Matt Hughes back in the day, but declined because he didn't feel he was ready for it. It takes a genuinely humble person to do that.

 

[Workinonit]

He's humble till you kick him in the nuts lol

 

[ARONAbeetFEDOR]

Humble sure, but he looks like a thug straight out of D block.

 

[BugsFunny]

he is awesome
good fighter, good dude
but anderson deserve not that much respect

 

[TASTEofmySCYTHE]

The most improved fighter I can remember in a while too. He's a completely different fighter than he was back then... pretty crazy. Saw him fight twice already live and I've been a fan since.

 

[The Clinch]

The guy is winning me over, however, Boetsch fan first. So after this fight I can root for him, haha.

 

[Seven30]

Costas is a stand-up dude....humble & honest....especially to himself, which is a problem many athletes struggle with....ego.

Max Holloway was like that as well when Helwani asked him about the Poirier fight
