“It’s my life; it’s not something I just do,” he added. “I don’t do a fight camp — I’m not that guy. I’m in the gym all the time, training all the time. This is just what I love doing.”
When some fighters say that, you know there is an expiration date on their passion; that eventually, after a couple dozen fights and a decade on the grind, the fiery love that fueled their primes will cool and give way to a nostalgic love, and the sweat-drenched daily sessions will give way to fewer, less intense trips to the gym.

But with Brown, it’s easy to see that even after turning 40 and more than a dozen years slugging it out with an assemblage of the best fighters to pass through the UFC welterweight division, that fiery love for this sport still burns strong and it will likely never be extinguished.
“To me, it’s not so much about the wins and losses, even though that’s important in terms of finances and getting rankings and getting the bigger, better fights that you yearn for,” he said. “For me, it’s just about being a warrior, having that bushido spirit, going in there, putting on a good show and having fun.
“That’s the way I’ve always been. I love this sport, I love competing, and I love fighting.”
