If you travel, especially out of state, make sure that you bring, on your carry on luggage, your mouth piece with you. You should go in protected, but God forbid, if before the fight your luggage gets lost, and you don't have your very own mouthpiece, that's a very bad thing. A mouthpiece is so important to have - a really good mouthpiece. Some people make this mouthpiece, they put it in hot water and they put them in and they really believe that's a professional mouthpiece. No, no, no. It's very important to spend some money on a mouthpiece. You're a professional. Get a professional mouthpiece. Most of the time it's tax deductible, so write it off for taxes, but make sure that it is 100%. It's really important to do that. Also, bring it on with your carry-on luggage. I used to do the same thing when I would fly to Japan. I would bring everything I needed in the fight in my carry on, even my outfit that I was going to fight in, because a lot of fighters are superstitious. They always think "I have never lost in this particular outfit", and that's the outfit you're going to fight in because if you lost in one, maybe you'd think "ah, it's bad luck." See what I mean? Bring your own outfit, otherwise you're going to start thinking things like "well, maybe I'm going to lose. Maybe my lucky outfit isn't here." You don't need all of that trouble. You have stress enough already on the day of the fight. Make sure that you don't have any stress.
