“Usually when I fight, it’s stressful,” Griffin told BloodyElbow.com. “You have a lot of nerves, it’s happening so fast. This time, it was slowed down. I was beyond comfortable. It was just slow. It was calm in there. It was great.
“I’ve never fought like this before. It’s always like how you want to fight — ‘I want to this, I want to do that’ — but your nerves get a hold of you.”
“This was my breakthrough fight, I definitely made the right choice. I went all in, and it paid off big. It paid off major.”
“I feel like I got to show a lot more by going that long, i didn’t take him early; I got to bust him up, show my speed, show my wrestling, show my cardio, show my movement. And it was real decisive. He got picked apart. He took some good punches.
“I feel better about it, because I did drop him, I did hurt him, I kind of embarrassed him. There was a lot more win in that win by making it a decision than just finishing the guy.
“It wasn’t a fluke. I broke him, and you can’t deny it.
All the media now is not giving me too much credit, because they counted me out so much, They’re saying more, ‘Should Perry have fought me?’ It’s like they’re taking away from me, like he had a bad night, instead of I actually put him exactly where I wanted to put him and beat him there.
“I made him fight like that, I was doing particular things. He was in shape. People just don’t understand that I fought the fight that I wanted him to fight.
“It wasn’t a lucky fight. He got dismantled.”
