Tom “Kong” Watson is looking to Donkey Punch his way to victory come this weekend at UFC 163. The English middleweight is 1-1 in the UFC and wants to make a statement against Thales Leites in his home turf. Now Watson’s goal is to knockout Leites something even former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva was not able to do.
Though it remains to be seen if this feat can be done, Watson has set roots down at The Reign Training Center with the likes of Mark Munoz, Chael Sonnen, Jake Ellenberger.
As Watson tells us, this change in camps and moving from England to California has had a dramatic change in him as a fighter, ” It is such a great atmosphere. Guys help each other out a lot more. Back home it tends to be everybody is out for themselves and kinda from that boxing mentality. Yea we fight on our own but you need your team to get you there and you need your team to support you along the way”
