LONDON – While a cursory examination of Mike Pyle’s impressive UFC 120
win over the previously undefeated John Hathaway on Saturday night in
London might suggest his impressive head movement and superior grappling
were the keys to the biggest victory of his 11 year career, “Quicksand”
would beg to differ.
For Pyle, the long-awaited transition from “best
fighter not in the UFC” to “UFC welterweight contender” is due entirely
to one thing.
His mind.
