“Derek Brunson may not be a black belt in jiu-jitsu but he is a very, very good wrestler and if you translate the wrestling with the ability to grapple, you might as well say the guy's a high level purple belt or a brown belt.”

“Going from '85 to '70, honestly, it's not that bad. It's not that bad if I'm smart about it.”

“With Strickland vs. Izzy, Strickland likes to do the man dance - but I don't think he has enough dance moves to dance with Israel Adesanya.”

“I don't have to talk at all during a fight to still have a big mouth and a meme moment. I just throw two thumbs up and go viral, so I don't really care.”

“I think I'm going to have a phenomenal time no matter who it is at 170 pounds, whether they're a great wrestler or a great striker, I think I'll be OK.”

“If you got a good car you should put good oil in there, good gas in there, and so on and so forth.”

“Those boys are heavy in there at '85. It's nothing I just can't deal with. It's just something that when you fight for 25 minutes, you think about that type of stuff.”

“When I go work with 'DC,' I learnt a few things from him.”

“I'm going to be the champ.”

“Wonderboy' and me would be a fun fight. I think we'd have a good time.”

“Nobody likes to be a loser.”

“It seems like everyone that comes against me wants to hug.”

“When I was 25, I wanted to make it, but didn't really care if I did.”

“It's like, beat Brunson, there are going to be 1,000 excuses why you beat Brunson, too. A main event against somebody with no excuses? That would've been amazing. The main event, beating Brunson, and there's going to be a thousand excuses once I beat, him? Ooh. Cool.”

“I'm still a thug at the end of the day.”

“You don't choose your nicknames they're granted to you.”

“I think if I press fast-forward I might just run through 'Jacare.'”

“I used to be real stubborn.”

“Wonderboy' is a fantastic fighter. We all know he does wonderful things. He's very defensive. He does a good job of not getting hit.”

“I'm about the styles, I'm not really about the belt. A lot of people love the belt. I'm like, I got plenty of jewelry. I got a lot of gold. I got a nice belt buckle made from a nice company out here in Texas - some Texas boy type stuff. I got belts. I got a nice buckle and a lot of people don't have that buckle. It's one of a kind.”
