When you were down in the fifth round vs. Holly Holm, what did you tell yourself before hitting that back take and rear naked choke? What was going on in your mind? Edit: Also, thank you for doing this AMA!

I need to stop trying to be so perfect in this fight and just get ugly. The takedown didn't need to pretty, it just needed to be effective. I knew I needed to make it happen.
