It's exciting to play someone who is a bit tougher than I am. I liked feeling those adjustments.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I usually play tough guys and stuff like that.
I may not be the most physically tough player, but I think mentally I'm right up there.
I like to play people who are underdogs and misfits. People who are not on a straight and narrow path. That's exciting for me.
There have been moments in my career when I've had to be tough and I've had to step up to the plate - but usually that's because a man has underestimated me. But other than that, I wouldn't say I'm a tough person.
If I play a more aggressive, stronger guy, I often go through my day feeling a bit better than when I play somebody who's not.
I play very, very emotional. That's just my style.
I'm excited by challenging myself physically and mentally every day.
What I think I've been able to do well over the years is play with pain, play with problems, play in all sorts of conditions.
When you're playing somebody who's going through a lot - frustration and hardship - you're just purging all your emotions, and it feels really good to do that.
I think I'm a really tough player.
