Getting cheers is something new to me, and I really feel being the good guy and acting all perfect, it leaves no room for error. I don\u2019t want to have to be stuck in that perfect role. I\u2019d rather be the heel. The heel\u2019s more fun, the heel\u2019s more interesting. Everyone talks about the Joker, not Batman. For this fight, particularly, she was Scarface, I was Batman. I needed to be a bad guy in order for Gotham City to have a hero. I take the role that\u2019s needed for every situation, so every fight I approach differently. My family is my kids on my show, my coaches, my actual family. There&#8217;s a lot of things that went on between me and her,  I understand that&#8217;s a part of the game. But, once you cross that line, I can&#8217;t shake the hand of someone who spits on my back. And so I respect her as a fighter, she did an amazing job tonight. It&#8217;s just  a handshake means something to me. And she hasn&#8217;t earned it from me. You really don&#8217;t think she can take back what she&#8217;s done until she actually formally apologizes to me and my team.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Like I said in the interview, I went to 30 different countries in judo and I got booed everywhere.
