Recapping Before The Fight - Dustin Neace

by Brent Todd - 03-08-2010

Dustin Neace will be taking on Anthony Marti at Ruckus 2 this Friday night.  Neace last competed against Jeff Curran at "Strikeforce: Fedor vs Rogers" in November where he suffered a rib injury just ninety nine seconds into the fight forcing him to stop.  MMA Recap's Brent Todd caught up with Neace to find out how his training camp has been for the fight against Marti.

Where are you training out of now?
I train out of the HIT Squad.  I've been here getting in shape.

How'd your training camp go?
Very good.  Me and him were supposed to fight last month, but it got pushed back and it's given me even more time to prepare for it.  I'm bigger than I have ever been going into a fight.  Right now I am at 1% body fat and I am huge.  I've been going six or seven rounds and I am not even tired.  It's gonna be a perfect fight for me.

Were you training anything different for your opponent?
We know he has really good wrestling.  So we have been training a lot of takedown defense as I want to keep it standing up.

Was there an aspect of your game you worked more than the rest?
I have been working on my cardio the most.  I have had 46 pro mma fights and this is the first time I have settle down and trained the way I should be.  A healthy diet.

How do you see the fight going?
I don't want to put any predictions.  If I could have my choice it would be a knockout first round.  But I can see it going the distance and I expect a good fight.

Any final thoughts you'd like to share?
It's going to be a fun night.

Any sponsors or people you want to thank?
