Song Kenan def. Ricky Glenn, UFC 305 (via UFC)

“This fight was tougher than I expected. The opponent was better than I thought he was, and he has really strong mental (skills). I was initially trying to finish him with my heavy hands, and I rocked him several times, but he still went through. So I really respect (his toughness).”

Kenan on the time difference

“(I slept) 5.5 (hours). I believe (that made me slower) – 12 hours less. I didn’t have enough time to sleep.”
