Everybody has a game plan, but the plan changes after the first punch.
Love me or hate me, it's all in my favor. If you love me, I'll always be in your heart. If you hate me, I'll always be in your mind.
Man, I got to say I love my haters because they challenge myself... it challenges me. It challenges me to be better. It challenges me to show who I am and that I deserve to be who I am.
Obviously I'm going to have haters.
I have a lot of things that people say about me on the Internet. I have bad things that I don't want to remember now. It's hard to delete.
Everyone's style is different, but I have a lot of things in my game the people don't know.
I think when you train in just one sport separately, you learn more.
Nothing is impossible for God.
I love to fight. Keeping me at home without a fight is the same to offer candy to a kid and then take it away. That's why I'm always competing in other martial arts. That keeps me motivated to train and helps me learn even more.
I love striking, but MMA and Muay Thai are different.
If my boss and my company loves working with me, we're gonna have a lot of success together.
I think if you are champ, you shouldn't choose your opponents.
Holly Holm was a boxer for a long time, and Leslie Smith comes from muay thai. It's different. Holly is more defensive, while Leslie comes forward.
I believe I deserve to be respected as an athlete because I'm a pioneer in this sport.
God has good plans for me.
If Amanda Nunes truly wants an opportunity at the 145-lb. belt, a win against any ranked contender in that division would help establish her back in a weight class she left before fighting me.
I never hated Ronda. She's always talked about me; she did that to promote herself because when she started, nobody knew her, and she talked about me for people to know who she is. And she opened the doors for women's MMA.
I have jiu-jitsu, wrestling... I like to do everything, especially knocking people out. People like fights like that.
A champion must be ready at all times.
I think, as a professional, inside the cage you can fix anything.
