Nathaniel Wood has vowed to come back stronger than ever following his first defeat inside the octagon. 'The Prospect' suffered a third-round TKO loss to veteran John Dodson at UFC Fight Night 167 in Rio Rancho, New Mexico in February.
Defeat to the Ultimate Fighter season 14 winner was Wood's first setback in nearly four years and has well and truly lit a fire under him. "I really do feel the comeback is going to be beautiful," he said. "It's given me that extra motivation I need. "I can't afford to have another loss, especially not in the UFC.
I'd hate to be my next opponent right now. "I'm training hard as it is and I'm training as best as I can do in lockdown. You're only going to see a better Nathaniel Wood come the next fight." A
