The guys in the top five, they're good everywhere. Me, I'm just almost one-dimensional.

I just feel that all the top fighters in the world are making all the money.

Basically, I guess they just thinking I've been winning my fights just by luck. I just think I've been winning my fights on heart.

I just really want to put the past behind me, because it makes me angry thinking about it. But it's also the reason I've made it this far in my career. It's like, built up in me. It's what I think about when I fight. My childhood.

Brock Lesnar is not a fighter. He's scared to be hit.

I know Cormier is a wrestler so you really got to get them hips down on him so I've been working them hips really good.

I'm not scared to fight anyone, I'll call anyone out.

It's like I say all the time, it's the heavyweight division. It doesn't matter if the guys a black belt or if he's a world-class boxer. We still have a 50-50 chance.

I don't train like a mixed martial artist. I don't respect the sport like everyone else does.

I don't care if I am ever remembered in this sport for anything.

I've been in that situation many times before - where I'm losing and I have to knock a guy out.

I've been through so much stuff that I hope even my enemies wouldn't have to go through.

A lot of people said I would never make it, and this and that, I'd never be a top 10 fighter, that I'd never fight for a title. Just stuff like that. Achieving all those goals and being the person that I am, this is going against everything everyone said I couldn't do.

I ain't trying to fight for no title.

Bowing and showing respect - I don't give nothing about none of that. I'm just coming in and fighting.

I just have a crazy sense of humor.

I go into every fight with a bad back and overweight and a damn-near diabetic.

I'm serious, I don't stay in the gym each day like my opponents.

You've got to try to find some type of mental edge on your opponent.

I throw so hard because I sit and wait for that perfect moment.
