"If a guy clubs you, you club him as hard, or harder, and you do it right then. You don't wait a minute and then come back. He clubs you, you club him right back, right then. He'll stop doing it. If you're in a match and a guy gets intense, you get intense right back, right then, as hard or harder, right then and he'll stop doing it. One-up him. If he slaps you, you punch him. He punches you, kick him. He kicks you, stab him. He stabs you, shoot him. He shoots you, go and kill his family. One-up him and you do it right then. Don't let him push you around. It's a mindset, I'm not talking about hurting anybody."

UFC middleweight contender Chael Sonnen gives an interesting pep talk on intensity (via Flo Wrestling) to a group of up-and-coming athletes. I guess the lesson here is, "Try not to get shot." Sonnen is booked to square off against Mark Munoz at the UFC on FOX 2 event on Jan. 28, 2012, from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. Hopefully the "Filipino Wrecking Machine" leaves his Glock at home or this upcoming network telecast could be the UFC's last.
