No one wants to work for what they have, to achieve a goal. No one wants to step outside of the house and go for a long run and sweat. Everybody wants to run inside the house, the treadmill. They want to trim up a little excess body fat, but they don't want to diet and train. Go straight to the lipo and whatever else they do. The easy way out.

The people who critique me are the people who don't know about the sport. They don't really know about the rules of MMA. They aren't a real fan or follower of the sport, or they're just people who like to talk.

If I'm number one in the world, it's for a reason. People can talk about the cardio all they want, but the results show it. So people behind me, they have to have really, really bad cardio also.

When you fight to give your family bread, that's not passion anymore: that's conviction.

I thank God I don't have a problem with any person. Nobody wants to have a problem with another person. I don't want it either.

If you're going to make comments on economy, study economy. If you're gonna make comments on world history, make sure you learn world history. If you're gonna save lives and be a doctor, you need to study medicine. Then, you will be able to make comments on economy, on medicine, and on world history.
