With the UFC in town for a big fight card this Saturday night, we spoke with lightweight title contender Clay Guida after today's presser downtown. And, like usual, the conversation found it's way back to hockey.
MM: Let's start with your mom, she's always cageside when you fight. What's the best or worse advice she gave you growing up?
Guida: 'Don't put your hands on someone unless you have a good reason for it.' She would always tell me, my brother and sister growing up, 'Keep your hands to yourself.' So, it's funny - that's what I do for a living now, I get to put my hands on other men. Competitively! (then he laughed quite a bit)
MM: How did that work out with Jason then, your older brother?
Guida: I was his wrestling dummy my whole life, still am. (more laughter)
