Wh🎐ile speaking to Fightful for a new interview, Steveson joked about being glad that he didn't end up swimming with the fishes.

"Yeah, the parking lot is a deadly place. Like I said, I got the call on Monday and then I was obviously just don't go on the TV if you're not being resigned. So I guess like the guys are telling me, I was just being told like, ‘Hey, we don't know what we're doing yet. We're just like waiting around because like we don't have a script or anything like that.’ So I'm assuming that they had to flip-flop a lot of things because right when I was called, I just announced that I was not being resigned. So I don't know if they had to flip-flop a lot of things apart on that script because they weren't telling them anything. Then I tuned in, I watched it, and I was like, ‘Oh, I gotta do it somehow. At least I didn't end up swimming with the fishes.’ Yeah, I'm hiding in a trunk until I get a hopefully another call to bust out."

Steve🍬son then went on to 🎶talk about his reaction to the segment.

"Obviously I heard. I was like, ‘Dang, man.’ I was watching. I had a laugh about it. I put a funny tweet out because me and Myles Borne were pretty close. I just put a tweet out and I was like, ‘Oh, shout out to Myles Borne for keeping the AC on for me,’ being in the trunk. Had a fun laugh with that, but obviously it hurt because I didn't expect it to be you being written off like that. But I had a laugh about it, but I also had a few frowns about it, but I guess you gotta write someone off somehow."

Elsewhere in the interview, Steveson talked about his future in the world of combat sports. Learn more about those comments here.
