Fighting is not something that I enjoy doing. It's something that I do that I feel that I have to do.

If anybody wants to fight me they know where to find me. I'm not a hard guy to find. Come get some.

Every other fighter has a life on the side. I've never had another job.

I don't know how they judge fights sometimes.

I'm gonna talk my talk, I'm gonna walk my walk.

I've been watching Frank Shamrock fight since the beginning.

I just want to display my skills to the world because I can do it all.

I love jiu-jitsu, and I love my team.

I want to go against the best fighters. That's why I'm always calling out Georges St-Pierre.

I will tell you right now, I want to fight the No. 1 fighter in the world. I always said that I want to fight the No. 1 fighter.

I do get paid well as an MMA fighter, but this isn't boxing and I feel like we should get paid like this is boxing.

I've lost fights before where I'm landing more punches and I'm moving away from the guy. So, the way that they score things at the end doesn't seem very consistent to me.

I have Georges St-Pierre out here telling me 'you really think I'm afraid of you, man?' and I'm like you should be, bro. You should be scared out of your mind. I'll tell you what, I'm scared of him.

I'm scared of any fighter I've ever fought because they are some dangerous people to be dealing with.

I think for hundreds of years or for a much longer time, people have been fighting, professional athletes have been fighting in a ring. So it's just the way it should be. There's no sense in making it a cage.

I have a cage at home, I have a cage at all the gyms I train.

I enjoy fighting here in Japan under the regular Dream/Pride rules with the ring and the whole rules criteria.

As far as MMA, I want to say there's maybe five guys that do jiu-jitsu that have an actual level of understanding when it comes to boxing.

I don't want to say I was a big Shinya Aoki fan, but it's just that I felt like he got out and was able to do a lot of the tricks that I like to do before I was able to do them. I guess you can say, a little bit jealous in a way that he was making that sort of show before I was.

I like the idea of being able to fight my way out of something.

Sometimes I'm like, man, I wish I'd just fall off, so people stop talking about me.

I was always throwing a fit about it, like somebody I was fighting had their hair painted and I would be like, it's not enough that this guy has to win a fight against me, but he's gotta do it with his hair being on blast, like big mohawk. Just a wild man.

I'm not in love with fighting. I never was.

I was never, like, picking on people or anything like that. I was more the other way around. I was a little insecure, I was broke.
