I was into basketball, but then once I found contact sports, it was over. I never played basketball again in my life.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
If you're the UFC champion, you're the best in the world at what you do, and I get the opportunity to do that.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
If I would have won that Olympic gold medal, I would have gotten a job somewhere coaching at a university, and I would be totally content with my life.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I'm not on a slander campaign to ruin Jon Jones publicly. That's not what I set out to do.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
If I didn't have the wrestling name that I have, I wouldn't have gotten the financial contract that I got with Strikeforce or the long-term contract or the television contract. That's all because of wrestling.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
My low center of gravity allows me to defend takedowns a lot better than most people. It's very hard to get to my legs. It's going to be really hard to take me down. There are a lot of positives to being my size.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
If you say John Smith is the greatest wrestler in Oklahoma history, now that's big.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
In my opinion, whenever you get two guys who want to fight each and two guys who want to be in a good fight, you let them fight.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
There are ways to win fights, and sometimes you don't always choose the easiest way to win a fight.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
When I watch Rumble Johnson, he's a bully. He bullies guys. He makes them go backward, and he traps them. I'm not going to allow that. If he tries to bully me, I'll stand right in front of him, and if he hits me, I'll hit him right back. And then we'll see how the bully handles it when nobody is going to run away from him.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I'm honored to be one of the guys that is seen as a leader of this great team - a team that has stood the test of time. AKA is one of the only teams that has been around since the beginning of the MMA explosion, and it's a huge honor for me to be named captain.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I went and worked at a TV station in Stillwater. I was actually account manager for commercial accounts, selling ad space and everything.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
Being able to go forward has been good, you know? I'm lucky to have that ability, to pressure guys and make them falter and wilt.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
If you value your wins and you value what you've done over the course of your career, then you wouldn't want people harboring over a loss, even though you fought extremely well.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I want to be regarded as the best guy in the world, and I want to beat the best guy in the world.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
Cain's an animal, man. Cain's a competitor. I want to spar with Cain because I know if I'm able to hang with him here in the gym, once I get out there in the cage and fight, I mean, I've already gone toe-to-toe with Cain Velasquez, you know?
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I've always had a chip on my shoulder. It kind of drives me. It's something that allows me to train harder, train longer, work better.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
Just being in the gym every day with someone with goals in common is special.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I'm confident in my team. I'm confident in my coaches. I'm confident in my ability. I worked really hard to become a better mixed martial artist.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
As a champion and one of the best fighters in the world, guys should always step up to the plate and want to fight Jon Jones.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I have definitely worked on that... being efficient and also being smarter with my pressure.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
You've got to be all-in on this sport; you can't be one foot out the door.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I'm not a guy that really likes to pile onto somebody. Doesn't really matter who it is.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I'm not really worried about what Anthony Johnson does. I have to worry about what I do to prepare myself.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I've done nothing but show up and fight, go to work inside the Octagon, outside the Octagon, and do things right. But people want to talk about me and discredit me.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I think that Amanda Nunes and Julianna Pena and Valentina Shevchenko... they've showed how much this level has gone up in female fighting in a very short period of time.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I usually fight a lot. 2015, I fought three times. I fought three of the best guys in the entire world.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
My confidence comes from me, not from Jon Jones. I can't draw my confidence from another person.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
People always get confused. They talk about coaches. The reality is, these coaches and managers that everybody thinks are in so much control, they work for us. They're our employees.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I have to be smart. You cannot be going in there, trying to go forward and pressure guys, and be taking damage and getting hurt on the way to doing it.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
It's unfair to think that we can do what we do with the intensity that we do it and expect injuries to not happen.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
My resume, my career, and my legacy in this sport means more to me then collecting some checks.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
When you start fighting, when your dream is to be the champion of the world, when you accomplish that, you don't feel lost. It doesn't hinder you. It only helps.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I went through a training camp; I worked extremely hard. I prepared for UFC 200. This was the big one. This one meant everything to me.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
I've done nothing wrong. Some people just don't like me. Maybe I'm somebody that's easy to dislike, but I don't get it. Whatever. I'll do what I do.
Quote by -Daniel Cormier
You can love me, you can hate me, but just don't be indifferent. Care about it enough to watch.
