Ryan Spann isn't one of those athletes who loves to fight so much he'd do it as long as anyone would give him the opportunity. It's more of a means to an end for him, a way to seek out financial security and set up his family for its future.
"I don't do this to show off," Spann said of his MMA career."I don't do this to fight for no reason. I want what I want so I can get out when I can get out. I want to get in and get out. The longer it takes me to get there, the longer I got to stay."
He's 21-7 as a professional in MMA and 7-2 in the UFC but in a way, the Krylov fight is like his second. That's because, after years of nagging from his coaches, friends and family, Spann has opted to put his heart and soul into training and work at the sport full-time. His brother would joke that he'd retire after fights, as Spann would balloon way up in weight. Eventually, Spann decided he needed to change.
The result was another first-round finish, this one a knockout of ex-title contender Dominick Reyes in just 1:20. It's always good for fighters to end fights early since they get paid the same whether they fight one round or five, but the quick finish didn't allow Spann to show off his newly found conditioning.
