He just telling them TO fight. He gave us the same speech he’s probably given 100x now, at UFC 119 immediately after weigh ins. It was pretty much this:
“You are here to fight. People pay a lot of money to watch you fight. We pay you a lot of money to fight. So fight. If you’re a ground guy, I’m not telling you have to stand up. If you’re a stand up guy, I’m not telling you that you have to try submissions. Whatever you do, go out and fucking do it. Don’t embarrass us, and don’t embarrass yourself. If you’re a wrestler, take him down and pound him out. If you’re a jiu jitsu guy, get him on the ground and submit him (I think this was meant for me), If you’re a striker, let your hands go”
That’s not word for word, but it’s pretty close.
