Rory MacDonald will still take an easy, effortless win over anything else. No one truly wants to get hit in the face multiple times, of course.
However, MacDonald is beginning to embrace his reputation as a fighter capable of violent performances, he told Ariel Helwani on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour. “The Red King” plans on less over-complication in his preparation heading into his run with Bellator.
“Who wouldn’t want a dominant performance?” MacDonald said. “That’s what I’m shooting for. I’m fighting the best guys in the world. … I would be a fool to think I wouldn't leave with a little blood and a few scrapes here and there.
