UFC featherweight Nate Landwehr will enjoy a hometown fight against Morgan Charriere at UFC Nashville this Saturday night.
“Oh yeah man the crowd is going to be little bit more home feeling. Punches is going to be a little bit more straight from the Earth,” Landwehr told reporters on Wednesday.
“We both coming off losses so one of us is going to lose twice, and one of us is bouncing back, and I’m going to be the one to bounce back this Saturday. That’s the mission.”
Landwehr (18-6) loves the hometown advantage that he’ll have on Saturday night. To him it’s about more than just himself though.
“Could have been on Mars, could have been on the Moon. It just means a little bit more than my fans don’t have to travel thousands of miles and spend hundreds of dollars. They can drive in, see the show, and drive out,” he said.
Hometown feel, coming off a loss, Landwehr changes nothing with his mindset. To him it’s still war.
“The mindset, it hasn’t changed, my mind’s a steel trap. I’ve been all over the world and Saturday night it’s a fist fight,” he said.
“Plain and simple.”
