Mark Vologdin discussed his emotions from his debut UFC fight, specifically addressing criticism about keeping his hands low in the third round. When asked why he dropped his guard despite taking damage and his corner's warnings, Vologdin admitted he was fighting on instinct and kept telling himself his opponent wouldn't knock him down even with lowered hands. He acknowledged this was foolish but stated he doesn't care what people say about leaving his health at risk or technical criticisms. Vologdin emphasized he chose this path himself and simply enjoyed the experience. He said people can claim it wasn't the right level or criticize his technique, but he genuinely doesn't care and was satisfied with the fight.
