In order to remain a top contender in the UFC's loaded welterweight division, Mike Swick needs a convincing victory over Paulo Thiago at UFC 109 this Saturday night. Swick is coming off a disappointing unanimous decision loss to Dan Hardy at UFC 105, which led to Hardy getting a title shot against champion Georges St-Pierre next month.

MMA Fighting's E. Casey Leydon spent the day with Swick at the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Calif., and talked about why he decided to take this fight on short notice, how he has prepared for the dangerous Thiago and what went wrong against Hardy. Check out Training Camp: Mike "Quick" Swick below.
