“I'm glad Ralek Gracie and Metamoris have been so gung-ho about me competing for them and being their champion. I've liked the response I've been getting and to be able to go out and represent where I'm from in catch-as-catch-can. I go out there and I've beaten my opponents, but we're picking each other off the mats, smiling and shaking hands.”
“I have been doing some savate training.”
“I fought when there was no money from fighting really.”
“I fought 'Travis Browne's' all my career. They just had a different name at a different point in life. They had the same type of skillset. They're basically the same type of guy.”
“If you're in Bloodsport, it's because I've seen something in you that shows that you can fight.”
“There's more than a few people that I could think of capable of meeting Brock Lesnar in the Bloodsport ring. We don't lack for for capable and wanting fighters.”
“The thing about 'Bigfoot,' he's a big guy and he's agile for a big guy, but he's not that agile and he's not that athletic. In fact, being a big guy is probably his greatest asset.”
“One of the greatest struggles of bureaucracies is they get built and created, but they design themselves in such a way that they can never be at fault. They can never be wrong, they can never have made a mistake and they never want to relent.”
“I've worked in Hollywood before.”
“To me, professional wrestling is made up of that: Olympians, world-class power-lifters, fighters, boxers, and you name it.”
“I know that I can beat anybody in the world.”
“I think Metamoris really likes having me as their champion, as far as I know, anyway. I think I've done a good job of being a champion and showing what a champion is.”
“I'm a big proponent of 'What happens in the locker room stays in the locker room.'”
“If I focus on one person, the idea is that, oh, now you've attained this goal and beaten one person. One person. Well, what about the rest of them? Now how are you going to feel about fighting them? What's the motiviation there?”
“Hard times is not being able to get a fight. Hard times is, knowing the company, waking up one day and seeing they been sold to your competitor, not knowing what you're going to do. Where's my contract at? Where's my money? Where's my security?”
“I couldn't think of a worse thing than to be anywhere with Chael Sonnen for 20 minutes.”
“I fought when you couldn't even buy MMA gear at your local sports store or whatever. We had to make it ourselves.”
“We look at MMA and working pro wrestling as one and the same, they're just two different sides of the coin.”
“If you were in the UFC as a heavyweight, you'd be an idiot to not want to fight Brock Lesnar. Whether he's a good fight for you, that doesn't matter.”
“I know I can win title belts.”
