On the past
“If I’d trained as hard as some of the guys out here, I probably wouldn’t be sitting here right now. I’d be at a different level of fighting.
“I just used up my time. I squandered it.”
On his current UFC contract
“It might be four fights, but I think I have to win my first one first, cause I haven’t really been too successful lately.”
On details of how he came to have a UFC contract
“I don’t think I should say anything. I could get in trouble, you know? I’m not saying nothing.”
On his weight
“You sayin’ I’m fat? It doesn’t look like, but I’ve got a lot of muscle under here.”
“I never had to make weight before. I never gave a damn what I ate. I’ve already stopped eating KFC, chocolate, that stuff. “I’ve got a personal trainer, never had one of them before. I’m not a big person, I’m only 5-foot-10 or something.”
On his current training schedule
“It’s been two or three years of bad training for me. Not my training partners, but how hard I trained, I’m looking to go overseas to train for the first time, to really get some good training partners. If I do things like I should do them, it shouldn’t matter who I’m facing, ever.”
“It is what it is now. I wish I could change the way I did things now, but I’m here for a reason For me now, I know this is my last chance. I won a K-1 world title, then I fought MMA. I wanted to win, but I didn’t have that drive to be a champion. I feel like now, I really want to be an MMA champion.”
