UFC middleweight prospect, Bo Nickal, isn't worried about being labeled a "hype train."
Nickal spoke with reporters during Wednesday's media day for Saturday's UFC 285 event in Las Vegas, Nevada ahead of his clash with Jamie Pickett and explained why regardless of the outside noise from pundits or fans, nobody is a harsher critic of the three-time NCAA Division I National Champion wrestler, than himself.
"As far the hype train stuff," Nickal said. "I would say that, it has to have some affect because I do hear it, and I do notice it. That is information that is kind of coming in. But there's more pressure put on me from myself, than anyone else. I wanna finish people and continue this "hype train" because that's just in me. I just really wanna achieve my goals, and I wanna be the best fighter in the world. I'm a harsher critic on myself, than anyone else could be."
