Mark Vologdin discussed his emotions from his UFC debut fight. When asked about keeping his hands very low in the third round and absorbing many strikes despite his corner's warnings, Vologdin said he was fighting on instinct. He admitted that even while being hit, he kept thinking his opponent wouldn't knock him down even with his hands down, though he acknowledges this was foolish. Vologdin stated he chose this path himself and doesn't care about criticism regarding technique or health concerns. He emphasized that he simply enjoyed the experience of his debut.
