A lot of jiu-jitsu training.
Pride :
What do you want to accomplish, not only in this fight but in you're your career?
Ryan :
Sakuraba and Yoshida. I want those two guys.
Pride :
Anything else.
Ryan :
No.
Pride :
What do you know about Minowa?
Ryan :
He's a very good opponent but he's not a threat to me. I'm going to beat him up.
Pride :
Did you see anything in Minowa's last two losses that you can exploit?
Ryan :
You couldn't see much because the fights were so fast.
Pride :
In both of those fights, they beat Minowa up on the ground quite a bit. Do you feel that's a good strategy?
Ryan :
I'm going to beat them on the feet and on the ground.
Pride :
Have you been training boxing?
Ryan :
I train with my brother. He teaches me.
Pride :
When you're in New York , you train with Renzo. When you're in Brazil , where do you train?
Ryan :
In my academy.
Pride :
Who are your main training partners?
Ryan :
Gabriel Vella, he fought Kondo in Pancrase. He drew Kondo in his first MMA match. And Fabio Leopoldo, a multiple world champion in jiu-jtisu. Fabio just had his first MMA match and TKO'd the opponent in 20 seconds.
Pride :
Are you going to try to end the fight quickly or take your time?
