Melvin Guillard on his style
“I consider myself to be like a Joe Aldo in that aspect. I admire that kid and he’s a great champion. He is actually one of my favorites to watch. I got to watch him defend some shots against Chad Mendes and it immediately rung a bell in my head. I need to fight my fight the same way Jose Aldo did his because I know Jim’s coming in to take me down. Everyone who fights me wants to take me down; no one wants to stand with me.”
Melvin Guillard leaves Greg Jackson
Both camps are great, both sets of coaches are awesome. It’s just a decision I had to make for myself professionally. Did I want to split the time? Yeah, I did, but it’s kind of like trying to work for Exxon and work for Shell. You won’t be able to split your time between both. Cause both of those companies wouldn’t allow it. So it came to one of those points in my life where I had to make a grown-up decision. Kind of an executive decision, and this is the decision I made. I didn’t leave Jackson’s in a bad way. I love those coaches to death, love that team, and if anything every occurs and I have to go back to Jackson’s, I hope I’m still welcome, because I didn’t leave in the wrong way… As fighters we have to make the decision who’s going to get us ready to take us to that next level. At the end of the day, all this hype about which coach is better than who, at the end of the day we’re the ones in there doing the job. We’re the ones that have to get in there and bust our butts. All they can do is give direction and make things go from there.”
