“I can beat people on the feet; I can beat people on the ground. It doesn't matter.”

“I'm the biggest draw. I do the biggest numbers in this division, and it's not even close. There's a reason all these guys want to fight me. They don't want to fight Tyron Woodley. Because I'm the biggest fight and the biggest draw in the division.”
“I always have a reason for why I do something.”
“It gets a little tough when you're cutting weight to travel all over the place, when you want to focus on really getting yourself ready to peak for your fight.”
“Malki Kawa, he doesn't know what he's doing. He doesn't know how to do business.”
“The difference between me and Tyron Woodley is that Tyron Woodley fights nervous; he fights scared. He doesn't wanna get tired, so the thing with Tyron Woodley is that he doesn't know how to push the pace. He doesn't have cardio. He doesn't have heart. He has a heart, but he doesn't have heart. There's a difference.”
“I'm always training, whether I'm training my mind, or I'm training my body. I'm always doing something.”

“Guys have a lot more to worry about when they're fighting me than they do fighting Khabib. He's just one-dimensional.”
“When I fight, people are going to watch me fight. They're not gonna turn the channel to 'Real Housewives of OC' like they will other fighters.”
“I'd love to go to Russia and silence that crowd and give the Russian fans something to cry about.”
“In my mind, I do have a lot higher wrestling than Woodley. We've wrestled before, and it wasn't competitive, and that's honest.”
