Jovial Yushin Okami credits Anderson Silva loss for new focus ahead of UFC 144

TOKYO - There was something obviously different about Yushin Okami the moment he walked into Wednesday's UFC 144 pre-event press conference in Tokyo.

From the ever-present smile on his face to the boxing-heavy workout session (complete with Anderson Silva-esque arm-hanging and slick shoulder rolls), Okami was in a completely different zone.

And it's not just for show, Okami said. Following his UFC 134 loss to middleweight champ Silva, "Thunder" believes he's a completely new man.
