Well what can i say?
This guy has it all! His answers were so clever and composed. He is a great player and whats best about him is that even though he doesnt always win, he almost always delivers great games!

Now that i think about it, (T)MMA's story is like a fairy tale or something. Initial lack of success and injuries(in MMA and BW), followed by "adoption" by great mentor(Boxer), followed by great success until major flaw(loss in Super Tournament Finals), and so on...

The guy even has a prophecy to fullfil(being the player that unites the worlds) and a rival((Z)DRG).

Make a movie about him already :D

Ditch those old de-motivating parents MMA, just have BoxeR and Jessica adopt you!

Wait.. they're around 30-33 and MMA's around 20 (I think)... So I guess that's a little messed up, but it's totally worth it.

For real though, loved the interview, very motivating and I look forward to seeing him hopefully beat DRG.

Oh, imagine Boxer vs MMA finals @ MLG. I'm not gonna say it would be just like Boxer vs iloveoov (don't want BW fans to go and get all pissed >,> did you read Kellymilkies blog? Dear lord man) but that's what comes to mind. Too bad that *probably* won't happen.

Oh well, one can always dream. Boxer/MMA Fightiiiing!

Oh Milkis, what would we do without you.

I'm going to be glued to my seat this weekend.

MMA! MMA! MMA!

Looking forward to seeing him play :-)
It is a sign of strength to cry out against fate, rather than to bow one's head and succumb.

Great interview. Awesome quotes about Boxer too. Hope MMA can become the player Boxer envisaged!

Amazing interview, great questions and great answers. Love MMA's enthusiasm and approach to progaming, you can definitely tell he is trying to follow by Boxer's example.

What the crap, Milkis? Where is your journalistic integrity? Why didn't you ask DRG for his side of the story?

As a zergy, i dont have much love for any players that play Terran or Protoss. But more and more interviews like this one ignite an enthusiasm for the game as a whole, regardless of what race they play.

Thank you Milkis and MMA for making me care.

I don't post much but I'm starting to more and more.
I didn't really know MMA before this interview, his words move me, especially the last two.

You've gained a fan I'll cheer for you!
