“Working is working, and there's a lot of great guys in WWE that I'd love to put on a match with.”
“I consider myself a pretty wrestling commentator, but only in the sense that I call it like I see it. It's serious business to me, and it's an athletic sport of wrestling, and I treat it as such without putting a big gimmick on it.”
“Winning is really all that matters.”
“I'm a born fighter.”
“My interest in wrestling began when I was a little kid, watching NWA and WWF on television.”
“If I were to fight Fedor I think it'd be a great match and I don't think there'd be any problem.”
“I grew up in a great era of professional wrestling. WWF was just really coming into it's own. The start of WrestleManias, the legendary performers like Macho Man, Hulk Hogan, Honky Tonk Man, Iron Sheik, Sgt. Slaughter.”
“The fighter knows best. Let them do their job. If they want to quit, they'll quit.”
“I hate to disappoint.”
“Having a professional grappling outlet is great for other submission wrestlers out there beyond Abu Dhabi, which happens every two years.”
“I can fight for a title against anyone in any league, anywhere, anytime.”

The idea for us to have Facebook or Twitter as 'oh, well it's the Internet, anyone can put up whatever they want and be whatever they want.' It doesn't work like that in China. There are much more govermental restrictions on a lot of things.”
“You're the favorite when you've won, you're the loser when you lost.”
“When you think of fighting, you think of the work that you put in at the gym. Well, recovery is part of that work process.”
“That's why guys in MMA call each other out most of the time. High reward and low risk.”
“This isn't the Best Friend Fighting Championship. This is MMA.”
“I always remember the fact that all businesses are for sale if you bring them the right number.”
“There will be another Travis Browne when Travis Browne is done being Travis Browne.”
“You know, there is more to being a coach than just techniques.”
“Hard times have been on Josh Barnett. Dealing with athletic commissions. Everybody's saying, 'You did this and you did that. You're the problem for this.' That's hard times. Hard times on my family. Hard times on my friends. Hard times on me.”
