Gore on the fight’s key moment, broadcast criticism

“Bisping literally always (criticizes my finishes). I don’t know why. Everything I do is just untechnical and wrong. Last time, I got that choke on that guy Josh (Fremd), he was like, ‘Oh man, it’s good. But it’s so super untechnical.’ Like bro: It was that untechnical because I literally just got the same choke in a row. It’s called a standing arm-in guillotine. It’s a technique. I shot on him and I switched the single leg to a (double). Probably if he says that’s not technical, then he doesn’t know how to grapple.

“But I respect him. He’s a former champion and I look forward to becoming a champion myself one day. I would never ever beef with a guy like this and I respect him. I’m trying to follow his path. He became a champion. I didn’t. I haven’t done sh*t in this sport, so I respect the pioneers like him, and I do crave to get that respect from veterans like him.”

Gore on his layoff

“It was the hardest time in my life, to be honest. This is a quick sport and people move on. Now I watch people move on and I watch how fickle the fans were, and it made me closer to my wife, it made me closer to my son and more importantly, it made me closer to God. It made it made me really get in tune with God. And I feel like I’m where I need to be now, mentally.”

Gore on what he wants next

“I feel freaking good and I’m ready to get back in here. I would like to have the fight with Bo (Nickal) rebooked and fight him healthy.”
