That won’t ever change in the eyes of young William, who recently turned a year old. In the meantime, by the time he gets to the age where he’s asking his father when he’s going to be in the UFC video game and wanting to go to fights, Billy Q has business to take care of, and that business is getting to the top of the featherweight division, starting with Saturday’s matchup with Damon Jackson.
“He’s definitely one of those guys that I felt like we were going to fight,” said Quarantillo. “He was on a nice little winning streak, and with my management team, too, and the way it happened, he just fought Dan Ige in the co-main event for a Top 15 spot and I basically did the exact same thing. We both got caught, we both got knocked out, so I think the fight makes a lot of sense right now.

It’s also a fight that looks to be a good one on paper, but the Buffalo native would like to make it a little more one-sided in his favor.
“My goal is to make the fight as exciting as possible because when he’s winning, when he’s doing good, he’s dominating the fight, he’s controlling people, he’s wrestling, and he actually does a good job slowing the fight down. So it’s going to be my job to make sure the fight is as exciting as possible, keep him off my legs, keep it off the ground and to make the fight exciting because I can win a very exciting fight, but his best chances are to make the fight boring. So my goal is to give the fans what they want to see.”
