“All the hype is due to me. I am the hype. Everything I do adds to the hype. Saturday night will be no different,” Garry said. “I will add to the hype when I knock Jordan Williams out and everyone will see why I’m the future.”
Not only is Garry guaranteeing a knockout, but he is also planning on getting it done rather quickly. Garry is aiming to get the KO in 66 seconds, which would be one second faster than fellow Cage Warriors alum Conor McGregor’s debut KO.
Garry’s aspirations to become a professional MMA fighter started when he saw McGregor roll through Cage Warriors and dominate in the UFC. Garry wants that same meteoric rise that McGregor had, and getting a quicker debut win would show that he means business.
Garry’s Journey From Cage Warriors To UFC
“Conor McGregor won in 67 seconds in his UFC debut so maybe 66 seconds just to show that I’m that little bit better, we’ll choose it as well. Someone is going to have to sound the clappers at 60 seconds, so I know I have six seconds to finish him, then I’ll just do it and pull it off,” Garry said with a grin. “The fact that the UFC is putting me on the biggest card of the year at MSG for my debut shows me how much they believe in me, how much they bought into the hype, and they can see that this kid is legit. For me it’s just a case of, all right, they can see it, everyone else can see it, just go out there and do what I do best, which is **** people up.”
