“I'm an old school guy.”
“That's the secret, hit without getting hit.”
“He sells, he knows how to talk, he's smart, he's no fool. McGregor doesn't fight, he just reacts, he's never first to throw a punch. He goes in there to tease, not to fight. He's like Muhammad Ali.”
“I don't care who, I don't care where. I just want to fight.”
“I'm not fighting for the money. Of course, money is good, but if I don't feel like going to the gym anymore, I can stop fighting and do something else.”

“I'm ready for anything they can put in front of me.”
“The past is the past, and I can't go back in time to change anything.”
“My way to fight is finish.”
