GSP "Fighting is Not My Life" - Joe Rogan

the Joe Rogan experience it's at the end of the world man is more to life than fighting whoo it's funny hearing that from you because you would expect to hear that from someone who isn't considered one of the greatest of all time but you're considered one of the greatest of all time so it would be very art it would be very hard to argue your approach because it's been so successful they they they they got it baby super obsessed I'm super obsessed Joe but that's why I become crazy then I stopped for four years then and when I came back I some of my circuit and the brain then I start to analyze myself and I why I'm why become crazy what did I stop because I'm taking this stuff too seriously man you have to take it for what it is you know I know it's a world championship fight I'm fighting I was fighting Michael miss me after four years people oh my god the fight are promoted on drama yeah and like John said John Danner he says I fight are not won on drama are won or on mundane things than we do every day that's how fight are one yeah how you program program your your your crews your your your your crews driver you know your your autopilot to win the fight that's how you you may I see it I fight like a autopilot you know like so when I fight when I prepare myself for a fight especially with a tactical part I program like a computer ow I want to react against that specific problem oh I'm gonna take care that that specific problem the only way to program it is to do repetition repetition and repetition and repetition and repetition it's like you said at one point Eddie Bravo we said like tie tying tying up your shoes yes we've been doing it so many time you can talk to someone the same thing yes when I get into a fight analyze again and I'm fighting and I see what pattern he does the most often so I want to program my computer to react to that pattern that would give me the advantage into the fight I don't know what when that pattern when occur when I want to program eyes that when it a cure I have an answer for it right away I don't have to think about it I don't think I just react and that's my problem when I used to fight and I got a lot of criticism before I was thinking too much towards the end of my career I had so much pressure I didn't perform as well as I was an earlier he's pushing my last fight before I stopped for the four years I was thinking too much overthinking to putting too much pressure like you said it's too serious you have to take it for what it is it's only a fight in a ten years you know it's you know it's sucks if you lose but man it is what it is you know what I mean don't take it for don't make it bigger than what it is it's only a fight and sometimes it's something very therapeutic that I like to do before a fight I Drive a car yeah when I fight in Vegas for example I Drive a car or New York same thing I Drive a car when I used to fight in Vegas back before my fights I used to be very very stressed and want a very therapeutic things I that I like to do is drive my car around and see normal people then I go a note about guys made to you why I Drive and I see old lady with our grocery store bag ha and I'm thinking like she doesn't care if I win the fight Saturday or not she's not even gonna hear about it then I'll always another guy yelling to another guy because whatever problem or this guy is going to the bank to pay his mortgage stuff they don't care they don't care you know the effect that I have on the universe is so freakin small nobody cares I'm the only one putting the pressure on me nobody gives a damn about it so that's why they helped me to perform now that's how some younger guys say oh these I'm nervous how do you I heard you don't sleep well the night before I say yeah it's true I don't sleep well what is your trick how do you find a way to sleep well I was like I don't really sleep well either nowadays it is how I'll do but how do you feel better about it like I just know that I'm not gonna sleep well and it's not gonna affect the outcome of the competition it's just a normal thing you learn how to deal with it better you're not gonna change it yeah just accept it yeah the stress is your friend and that's gonna make you react there's gonna be on the have you ever slept well before I never never only one time which one when I fought Matt Serra and I got knocked out and then after that knocked out I got so scared and it happened again it's the most humiliating day of my career I was so angry like I said I was like putting too much on myself it started there it's like I didn't want go to buy eggs at the grocery store because people this day look you get knocked out like I thought everybody cares about me nobody cares about you nobody care it's only a small percentage of population nobody gives a damn and even if they do what you make a mistake you you Zig when you should have zagged you get clip so what everybody make mistake you have to take fight like it is you know it's a sporting event that's why I don't take it personally like it I wanna have the problem with the Diaz but no problem and is that fight it's not personal for me you're you're in my life now you you won't be there in ten years maybe maybe you will man who knows it's only like a chunk of life that we share together and then after is gone no problem with that
