I think other fighters can see that I've had hardships, in and out of the cage, and I've persevered and pushed forward. If other people can take that and incorporate it into their lives, then obviously that is rewarding for me to see.

I want to constantly get better. Why not just keep fighting? Until I get told that I can't anymore, then I'll move on.

Fedor is kind of hard to nail down to one company.

It was always a goal of mine to go back to Cuba, where my paternal lineage comes from.

I've been training in martial arts since I was a baby running around the school. Everything from wrestling to muay thai. I started wrestling when I was 15.

When I was 22, I had the opportunity to work as a bouncer. I only had to work one or two nights and could make enough money to spend the rest of my time training.

If you break down actual techniques and knowledge of MMA, I am more knowledgeable than the head coaches of all the guys I'm fighting. Forget the guys I'm fighting. Obviously I know more than they do, nobody is going to question that. But I also know more than the guys who are teaching them about fighting. I could teach them.

I watched guys who were professional fighters hit each other 30 times, and it still didn't go anywhere. I thought 'that wasn't very effective' But I saw if you got someone in a choke, you can end a fight in seconds, and I pushed toward that.

I think Matt Mitrione is a super tough guy, very athletic but I think that I'd probably get more pay-per-view buys if I fought Fedor.
