What's your favorite activity off the strip?

Really just to go to the gym, there's tons of gyms here, I work at UFC Gym so that's one of my favorites, also Mayweather boxing because you can see all the champs come in but you can also see regular people coming in just having a good workout.

 

What's your favorite activity on the strip?

It's probably eating food, there so many different kinds of food out here and different places to go, it's probably just as good as any other big city in the world.

 

What's your favorite Vegas restaurant?

There's so many to pick from but there's actually a restaurant down spring mountain called Krung Siam and it has the best Thai food and I think it's amazing, I love thai food so that place is great.

 

What's your favorite Vegas business?

I don't really know much about businesses out here, but I know everyone does really well. I know the gym services, and I love UFC Gym because they are actually a family owned business here, I know its a corporation but people actually own them and there really personable, very good people and they've always supported me with my career.

 

Do you have a funny Vegas story you can share?

The funniest story I have in Las Vegas was Downtown Fremont Street, but everybody knows what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, so there you go.
