Mixed Martial Artist

I'm a finisher, but he's still Diego Sanchez. He's a wild man. I'm very blessed to come out with the win.

I'm around a world-class staff that is pushing me to the limit while making sure I don't break myself, which is something I've had a problem with.

I always want to fight guys that want to test me.

I've always loved the fight with Khabib.

The beard has gotta stay. That's my staple. I can't get rid of it.

Colby Covington is a nightmare match-up for me, but I'm ready to walk through the fire.

If you look at my fights, you see I finish a lot. It's just how I like to go and I'm always looking for a way to end it.

Just do Conor McGregor-Nate Diaz 3 for the 165-pound title. You want to talk about a big fight? That's a big fight. Let's add some weight classes. Let's see more champion versus champion. Let's get some more two division champions.

Being mentally tough is having to battle those demons and push yourself out of your comfort zone and force yourself to be the person that your mind is telling you you aren't.

What if I could just focus on fighting? What would that be like? What would it be like to take advantage of all the resources this place has to offer? Because you're not doing it when you're cutting weight all the time.

I'm not a small guy. I can get up to 205 pounds and be athletic and be in shape.

If you win one fight in the UFC, you're good. If you win two in a row, you're great.

I'm not the prettiest. I'm not the best, but I win and that's all that matters in the UFC.

I show up to win. I don't show up to hurt a guy. I don't show up with emotion.

I'm not afraid to grapple with anybody in the lightweight division.

All I've got to say is I'm in the top 15, I'm not taking any backwards steps.

I'd love a training camp. But if they walked in the door right now and said, 'Do you want to fight for the title in the next 10 minutes?' I'm out the door, warming up, ready to go.

My path leads to a world title.

Mario Yamasaki should just crawl in a hole and never step inside of any type of professional mixed martial arts event. He should never officiate, ever again.

I had never fought a guy before that I had put on a pedestal the way I did with Carlos Condit. I've got his walkout shirt. He's a former champion. I'm a huge fan. I doubted myself a lot of times.
