StandThemUp Exclusive: Interview with Jason Dent

Jason Dent is a legend of the sport and a veteran of many hard fought battles in the cage. He is a pioneer for MMA and one of my favorites.

STU:It is listed that You have been training and competing professionally since 2003 fighting names like Jeff Curan, Roger Huerta, Glieson Tibau and Chris Lozano. What do you feel was your toughest fight to date?

JD:I’d have to say the one guy that gave me the most trouble would have to have been Glieson Tibau. He was so strong it was ridiculous. It was one of my most boring fights but I say him because he was able to just shut me down and make the fight boring. I had exciting WARS with all the other guys.

STU:You fought Chris Lozano at Fight night in the flats,which was voted one of the best in 2010,how do you feel that he will do in the upcoming Bellator tournament?

JD: Chris is a stud no doubt about he is definitely on the rise and a force to be reckoned with. I always root for my past opponents and it doesn’t matter if I beat them or they beat me. He is more of a striker and the guy that will beat him will have to be decent on his but awesome at takedowns. When Chris and I fought I bumped up a weight a class from 155lbs and he bumped down from 185lbs to meet at 170lbs so with me being a natural lightweight its tuff to gauge how well he will continue to do against bigger guys.
