I live in a van down by the river ... err, a Winnebago on an Indian Reservation in New Mexico. I've kind of secluded myself. When I wake up in the morning in the RV, I look out and I see where the buffalo roam. Literally, there's like 30 to 40 buffalo always wandering around the RV. It's kind of surreal and puts me in that training mood.
I started out at a young age, wrestling, playing football, playing baseball. I always had that hard-nosed, go-getter attitude. That has been my 'go-to' in my mixed martial arts career in the UFC.
People see the wild hair and all that, but I'm really driven by my workout partners and my trainers. What I lack in talent, I make up for with heart and hard work. I wrestled in college. I never was a national qualifier, never made it down to the national tournament. In high school I never made it down to state. I'm making up for things in life I didn't do earlier.
Take the ten most awesome, gnarly rock concerts you've ever been to and wrap it all into a 5-10 minute spot in your life. I feel like a lead singer and this is my own show. That's about as close as I can come to describing The Octagon.
I hear the crowd stomping their feet and screaming my name ... "Guida! Guida!" That drives me. I can feel it in my blood. I feel with every punch I throw, every bead of sweat that comes out of me, it's something special. The fans are the ones who pay our bills, so the least I can do is give back to them and put on a show every time out.
The coolest man to ever exist:D
