I'm more than a fighter and not just a pretty face.

Do I want a shot at the belt? Yes, of course I do. Put it this way: I am Barry Sanders on the Detroit Lions. You love to watch me, but you'll never see me play in the Super Bowl. It's just one of those things. It's about politics. It's not about fighting.

I always thought the best part about sports was the bigger, faster kids who were supposed to be more athletic than me - I always beat.

I don't care if I win or lose; I know I'm going to give 110%, and I'm going to hold my head high at the end of the day.

I just don't want to be one of those guys that's stuck fighting the same opponents again and again.

For me, the biggest thing with Overeem, he's a K-1 champ, Strikeforce champ, DREAM champ, you name it. He's had every belt in there.

For me, having pneumonia and losing to Mir doesn't sit well.

What's wrong with being a two-sport athlete? You've got Deion Sanders. You've got Bo Jackson. You've got Michael Jordan; he wasn't a very good baseball player. There's nothing wrong with crossing over.

I just remember I used to go to each tournament to make a couple bucks. I did as a living thing; I got paid to do martial arts, so I'd go to these jiu-jitsu tournaments and make, like, $1000 every time I won the tournament.

The one thing about the heavyweight division or, actually, just being in the UFC, anybody can win, and anybody can lose. You're competing with the best in the world.

The one thing that always sucks about me is that I'm just a fighter, and I just love to fight.

If you go into 'The Ultimate Fighter' and you're just gonna go in there to get just one fight and win... the premise is to win the whole thing. When I went in, I wanted to win the thing or be cut.

I stopped trying to think about how the UFC operates. It's like trying to understand a woman.

I guess everybody is doing a movie thing, so I'm doing the 'Scorpion King 4.' My role in the movie is as one of the king's guards, with a very original name: Roykus. Apparently, back in the day, everybody's name was 'us,' so 'Roy' plus 'us,' and put a little 'k' in there: Roykus. I'm one of the royal guards, and I do my own stunts like Jackie Chan.

All I know is that Stipe gave me inspiration because if Stipe can be that UFC champion, and they actually gave him a title shot, then I'm like, 'Ah, I do have a chance.'

A good wrestler, with good jiu jitsu and great boxing, can beat Fedor.

If you made the choice to get in there and fight, you have to accept accountability for whatever happens.

I just want to be agreeable; I want to be a pleaser. And that's all I want to do. I want to please the fans or the haters. One or the other.

I relate more to 90 percent of America because I look like 'em, act like 'em. I'm not above anybody; I put my pants on the same way. Some guys try to live up to their persona. I'm just me.
