MMAjunkie spoke to Jake Collier after his win at UFC Fight Night 120. Below are some highlights from the post-fight interview. Collier defeated Marcel Fortuna by unanimous decision on the fight card.

Collier on wanting to fight at UFC’s card in St. Louis in January: “I’d love to (fight on that card). I’ll take a week or so and get my fight back together and see if the UFC wants to throw me somebody. That’s seriously only an hour from my house – that’s my backyard. I want to fight on that card. I’m going to take about a week off and see if I can start making some noise and get on that card.”

Collier on no fight in the UFC being easy: “Nobody in the UFC is easy. I prefer a non-wrestler so we can stand and exchange a little bit and put on a show for the crowd because that’s kind of what I like to do. That’s all I really ask for.”
