"Definitely dealing with his reach and my inability, well I just have a hard time taking people down but I was happy after the 1st Round, I felt good. It was a good fight," said Flach.

 

 

"I think sportsmanship is key and that teams need to act accordingly. I think the opponent I fought had excellent sportsmanship and I would like everyone to act like that. I don't like the bad stigma about cage fighting. I really dislike it. I just want people to act honorably," said Flach.
