Jose Aldo

“The training is intense here at Nova Uniao.”

“Aldo is one guy. Barao is another one. We're friends, we're teammates, but it's a fight. Each one will defend his name.”

“When I'm inside the cage, nobody will take anything away from me.”

“People come to me to say I don't sell; Brazilian media say I don't give interviews. Nobody is obligated to do anything.”

“My objective since I started my career was: become the champion, remain the champion, retire the champion.”

“I'm happy that Holloway is the champion. An example, someone who deserved being where he is.”

“I've competed for so many years that I can go in there and have fun and do what I love, which is fight and compete.”

“That was my biggest dream, to one day become champion in MMA and boxing. That is my biggest dream.”

“I want a superfight. That's my biggest wish. I want to test myself in different divisions.”

“Chael Sonnen inspired everybody. You go there and call someone out, and you get the fight.”

“Even parrots talk. I don't care about what they say.”

“No matter what happens, I will always be the champion.”

“Every fighter seeks evolution.”

“I dream of being champion and dream going out as champion. That's my biggest motivation.”

“Everybody knows if you have the rules, you need to follow the rules and do exactly what you need to do.”

“I always did promotion for my fights.”

“McGregor has a good punch, but he cannot say that he's the biggest puncher. MMA gloves are tiny - four ounces - so when they connect, they drop you.”

“We need to know how to handle the criticism.”

“I don't even watch my own fights. If it's not someone from my team or someone I like, I guarantee you that I'll go to the movies with my family instead.”

“I'm the king of Dublin.”
