“I'd love to fight in Japan. I always dreamed about this when I was a kid and started watching PRIDE, so I would love to fight there.”
“I think the tournament is maybe the most fair way to fight for a title because, basically, it's a ranking system. It's an elimination system, so you gotta go through the tournaments to face the champion.”
“No other featherweight has my hands.”
“There's no other featherweight in the world that is as complete as I am.”
“Being in the UFC doesn't mean you're the best. UFC is tough too, but Bellator is tougher.”
“I'm no doubt the best fighter in MMA. There's no doubt about that, and I have the mental ability now to go along with the skills I have always had.”
“If there's one thing I do well, it's rematches. I always come back better.”
“Future belongs to God and we don't know what's gonna happen.”
“I have negative feelings towards Pat Curran, but I can't let it affect me during the fight. I won't use my anger during the fight. If he thinks he will make get emotional during the fight, he's dead wrong.”
“I'll continue to face great challenges, stay on top for a long time, continue to evolve, and continue to prove with facts that I'm the best.”
“Michael Chandler's performance in his UFC debut was great. His opponent was great, but it felt like he was mentally unprepared to face Michael Chandler. He crumbled to his pressure and movement early.”
“Conor McGregor became a monster in the UFC, but he was already a star in other promotions.”
“In the UFC, they can simply cut you if you have one win and one loss.”
“Emmanuel Sanchez and AJ McKee are side by side with Max Holloway. Everybody is the same level.”
“I hope to be remembered one day as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, fighter in MMA history.”
“I want people to say the name Patricio when they talk about MMA and that God allows it to happen.”
“I have judo throws, punches, kicks, knees.”
“My domination is getting so strong that it's starting to become much clearer now who's the best featherweight, but I've been raising this debate for a long time.”
“My biggest desire and everyone knows this is to have a cross-promotional fight between Bellator and UFC. That is unlikely to happen, though.”
“I even have abdominal fat.”
