UFC Welterweight Jesse Ronson spoke out post-fight following a massive statement performance at UFC Fight Night 174 in Abu Dhabi.

The bout took place on the preliminary section of the fight card inside the Flash Forum on Yas Island. Moreover, with two first-round submission finishes under his, Ronson is on his to building a hefty resume.

Ronson’s interview after his impressive performance went a long way in boosting his profile in the division. His hilarious take on weight cut made for a solid sound bite, coupled with his mean intentions. He expressed a desire to make a return to action by the end of the year via UFC on BT Sport

“If you’re 6-foot 3 you need to eat something other than lettuce and cubes. Luis Pena and Jalin Turner, those tall guys at 6’3″, at least Mike Vick became a man and he moved up. How can you be 6’3″ and call yourself a lightweight, like dude eat something.”

‘The Body Snatcher’ is a seasoned campaigner with 32 professional fights on his record. He finally made his way back into the promotion after being cut back in 2014 whilst on a 3 fight skid. Since then he has managed to secure quality wins in several promotions and found his way back.
