Q and A with Scott- What are your thoughts on your opponent Tim Wilde? Tim is a great fighter. I have total respect for the man. He comes from a great gym and he’s not had any easy fights. When you win a fight you want it to be against a great opponent. Tim is a great opponent. Tell us an interesting fact about yourself. An interesting fact about me. Depends what you deem interesting. I write film scripts sometimes.  What is your favorite fight of all time? (yours or another person) My favourite fight of mine has to be against Kev Reed. I lost the first round because Kev’s wrestling takedowns were awesome and I couldnt stop them. I learned so much from that fight. My eyes were opened to how much I was missing from my fight game so I went away and worked on loads of new stuff to add to my abilities My favourite fight to watch is Hendo vs Shogun 1. What a war! What attracted you to Dragons Lair MMA? I was running my own gym, Revolution MMA , and I was spending too much time focusing on teaching and not on my own career. Dragonslair was my nearest competition gym and I had seen how good the fighters coming out of the gym were. I have known Brad Scott for years since he fought on an event of mine in 2008. I tried out for the same ultimate fighter as Brad. I made the last 16. Brad made it onto the show. In the car on the way home I was discussing with Stu Pike (Dragonslair head coach) about going over to train. When I shut my gym it was the only place I wanted to go.  Best move I ever made for my fight career. I wish I had gone there years ago
