• I'm a UFC fighter, a macho-type sport. I am a heterosexual guy in a tough macho sport, which is exactly the reason I feel a duty to say I support gay marriage and gay rights.

Society as a whole is better when there is equality, and I want to live in a country where everyone has the same rights because we all benefit from that.
