Clarke is preparing for a bout with Al Iaquinta, which will take place at UFC 173 on May 24^th. The Canadian lightweight shares his thoughts on the match-up, his training camp at the renowned MMA Lab, as well as his plans for 2014.

MacLean weighs in on the UFC’s recent decision to drop Fit Plus fighter TJ Grant from the promotion’s lightweight rankings, as a result of the contender’s inactivity.
