Pro/Ammy: Pro
1. If you had a super power what would it be? Invisibility! You could scare the poop out of so many people!
2. Who would you want with you if you were stranded on a deserted island? Gordon Ramsey! I would imagine I would get hungry and he can make a master piece out of a coconut and a clam.
3. What DVD could you watch over and over? We’ll, I’m pretty sure my mom would tell you I repeatedly watched Hook, Major Payne and Renaissance Man as a child. I mean like every day of the week for years, so those would be it. Hook is by far my all time favorite movie.
4. If you won $1,000,000, what’s the first thing you’d buy? My student loan pay off amount. I mean, it’s ridiculous.
5. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Hawaii! By far the coolest and most relaxing beautiful place I have ever been!
6. What’s the last thing you ate? Oh my god my trainer is going to kill me. Last night I had a cheat meal and it was the last time I ate so here it goes: four cheese Mac n cheese and chicken tenders. And I will be head kicked for that lol!
7. At which store would you like to max-out a credit card? I’ve already maxed it out at book stores, on grad school and on training equipment. But if I could spend a ton of money on gear I really would do it. After fighting for eight years you learn the value in good equipment. Ok in my dream scenario I would go to Disney world and Universal Studios and buy all of the Harry Potter swag. I mean who doesn’t want the wand of a wizard?
8. Who’s your fave sports team? Yankees, no questions asked. Die hard fan!
9. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Purple with out a doubt.
10. What’s your fave song/artist right now? I am feeling Aloe Blac right now. I listened to “I’m the Man” on loop for weeks before my fight and that was the best I have ever fought. That’s my walkout song for sure. It gets me pumped.
11. What restaurant would you choose for date night? Piccanos Italian. I’m originally from Brooklyn, NY and I’m clearly Italian. Michigan has failed my people’s cuisine; however, there is one restaurant in the burbs of Detroit owned by two old school Italians. That place is the bomb.
12. What’s the farthest you’ve been from home? I played soccer for a USA team In England when I was 17. I hope to go back there one day. It was awesome.
13. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would you choose? Abraham Lincoln. He was a pretty spectacular and wittily humorous dude. I would love to pick his brain.
