UFC’s Matt Brown Interview Part 1

UFC’s Matt Brown Interview Part 1(Click me for audio!)

Here at Fighttrader.com, we’re big fans of Matt “The Immortal” Brown, and not just because he freaked out because someone put lime juice in his dip on TUF. We like him because he is just a down to earth, humble, good dude, and one hell of a well-rounded fighter who always has exciting fights.

Off the air, he and I got talking about what music he is into, and what songs he may use for entrance music for his upcoming fight. It turns out he is a big fan of Down and Pantera. So, he may be walking out to “Mouth For War” by Pantera (perfect!), and I decided to include music by Down for the background of the interview. He was talking about Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” being on his mind in his last fight (you’ll have to listen to hear why), and I considered adding that song into the background . . . but it just didn’t work continuity wise. Sorry, Ms. Gaga, if you happen to be an MMA fan and stumbled onto this site, however unlikely that may be.

It’s always a pleasure to talk with “The Immortal” one, so it ran long into a two parter. Here is part one. Hope you enjoy, be sure to tune in for part two, and don’t forget to show your support for him against Chris Lytle on July 3rd at UFC 116!
