Kicking off this edition of TTP is our interview with UFC featherweight, Steve Garcia. Garcia talks about the long grind of his UFC career and how his ability to put his nose to the grindstone had helped him.

In addition to all of those stories, we chat about his fight at UFC Austin against Melquizael Costa and why he feels like that fight is going to be one of the most exciting of the night.
