Q&A with "The Young Assassin"

Melvin Guillard Answers Fan Questions from Twitter:

Q: "How do you like fighting people that you sometimes hang out with on a regular basis?"
A: "I don't mind at all, they are well respected. If beating a friend means that what you need to become a world champion then, hey, you gotta take that friend out."

Q: "What would it mean to you to bring the city or New Orleans another championship?"
A: "For me to bring the city of New Orleans a championship would be one of the most spectacular, exciting things in my life cause it was spectacular to see the Saints [NFL - New Orleans Saints] win the superbowl in 2010 and for me to have the chance to be a world champion from the city or New Orleans... it'll be a special day."

Q: "Who were your role models growing up?"
A: " My parents. They worked hard for everything and taught us the value of a dollar. To also value the value of a dollar. My dad, my mom, never gave us anything. They always made us work and pay our way for everything, so I think that taught me good leadership skills and it definately taught me to be a man, so, that worked out good."

Q: "If you could fight any fighter in the history of MMA, who would it be? Who do you respect the most in MMA?"
A: 1) "If I could fight any fighter in the UFC, a dream fight, I think it would be Anderson Silva bacause I think he's one of the greatest pound for pound fighters in the world of all time."
     2)" I repect all fighters, not just one fighter. I respect every fighter that can get in the Octagon and do what we do. ...cause we make it look easy on T.V. but in reality man, there's a lot that goes into this, a lot of preparation; mentaly and pysically."

My Thoughts:
"The Young Assassin [Guillard] has had some hard times lately; now dealing with 2 consecutive losses. Both Jim Miller and Joe Lauzon submitted Guillard in the first round of each fight.
July 7th, The Young Assassin is set to fight Fabricio Camoes who's coming off of a First Round Submission over Tommy Hayden at UFC on FX 1.
Guillard is going to have to seriously change his gameplan if he wants to win this fight.

**Prediction**

Fighter: Guillard
Round:  1
By :      KO
