Robert Valentin, a finalist in The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 32, expressed that his time on the show was enjoyable, despite the typical challenges like quick fights and isolation. Unlike many participants, he cherished the experience, referring to the TUF house as a 'temple,' where he could focus purely on training and fighting. He views his upcoming fight at UFC Vegas 105 as his true debut, having felt pressure in his previous match. He encourages himself to appreciate the moment and remembers the passion for fighting that drove him here.
"To be honest if you say it like this, it sounds awful, but for me it wasn't hard. Actually when people ask me, until today, I say it was the best time of my life. I enjoyed every single day."
"I have to really say for some people it was a prison, for me it was a temple. I really enjoyed it."
"This fight is my debut, because the last fight was still kind of feeling like The Ultimate Fighter. We were wearing The Ultimate Fighter shorts, Ultimate Fighter gloves."
"the motto for the fight camp was 'remember your past self would have died to be here, so enjoy it.' It's an amazing opportunity and an amazing experience."
