Home at Last!

By Gray Maynard

I’m back home in Las Vegas now after doing some sight seeing in Washington D.C. with my family after the fight. All in all it was a really good trip. But I’m definitely glad to be home. I hope everyone had a chance to catch the fight on Spike TV against Nate Diaz. First off I’d to thank Nate for the fight. He’s a very tough and dangerous competitor. As most of you know I had lost to him previously on The Ultimate fighter TV show. Which showed me at the time, I had a long way to go and a lot of training ahead of me. It was an eye opener of where I was at that point in my career. Nate and I went on to beat some of the top lightweights in the UFC, which made the second fight possible. I had to work my ass off to make sure I went home with the win this time. I want to thank my family, sponsors, training partners, coaches, and all the people that support me. Also I’d like to thank all the people that don’t support me but still support the sport. Because without everyone, this sport wouldn’t have grown to be what it is today.
