Everybody points their finger at me and says that I'm the crazy guy and this thug.
I'm not hard to find. I'm on Snapchat and Instagram every day.
I don't owe nobody nothing.
It's a really complicated road if you're an MMA fighter.
I do what I've got to do to survive, to keep my teeth in my head, and my head on my shoulders. I apologize to whoever can't put that together and understand that.
I am a fighter. It's what I am.
I love athletics and martial-arts and competition because it gets me right and puts me in the right place.
People want to see real skill level, real Jiu Jitsu, real boxing, put together and mixed up. They want to see mixed martial arts. They don't want to see five minutes of holding. I think there should be points deducted when you do that.
You can't lie to the fans. They know what they want to see.
I'm the most overworked, overtrained, underpaid fighter.
I've never backed out of a fight in my life. That's not what I do.
You know what? I've never paid taxes in my life. I'm probably going to go to jail.
I'm fighting hard, I'm training hard. I'm still walking over people and stepping over people to get where I'm going and I would really like to give back especially to my mom, who was there for me when I was a kid.
This is my life. It's everything I do, train eight-hour days every day.
I drink 10 pounds of water and sweat out 10 pounds of water every day.
Stockton is a great fight town because if you drive long enough on some of these roads, you'll probably see a pretty good street fight.
The UFC wants me to fight. The people want me to fight. I don't want me to fight.
I'm just going to do what I always do: train. And when it's time to fight, I go fight.
Have you ever seen me knock somebody out and make a big scene? Hell no.
I live a fight life, I can do what I want to win a fight.
