“I’ve always felt confident with martial arts, and I always knew that I would fight Lyoto one day. Lyoto’s a great opponent, man, he’s game. I think he takes this sport seriously. I think he’s unpredictable, he’s fast. Lyoto loves distance and I love distance, but I have the longer limbs, and I believe I’m just as fast.

“So if Lyoto wants to play the distance game with me, I think that’s going to be awesome.

“I’m also very upredicatbale. I have tons of confidence and faith in my wrestling abilities against Lyoto. I feel as if I can shoot at his legs and take him down. And I also feel as if I have tons of versatilty from the clinch.

“I know myself. I know my weaknesses, I am not naive to them. And I am starting to understand my opponnt. I am starting to understand what makes Lyoto Lyoto … where he’s strong, where he’s weak.

“I will defeat Lyoto Machida. I believe that it’s my destiny to be UFC champion for many years.”
