I have never been affected by terror, but here in Iran, I have never felt any ill will toward me - the opposite, actually.

I've always thought about it. I've considered it when I was young. I was like, 'Listen, I'm going to fight. I want to be a star. I'm going to fight.'

Every person I wrestle, it's the biggest match of their career. They're Buster Douglas. But what's the honor in being Mike Tyson and beating Buster Douglas? I win and move on. They win, and it's a game-changer for the rest of their lives.

John Smith from Oklahoma State was the greatest American wrestler of all time.

Discipline, focus, endurance is what it takes to be the greatest at this sport.

I'm so comfortable in my identity as a wrestler that if I never fought, it would never bother me one bit.

There was a period of time early in my career where I was like, 'I'm gonna definitely fight. I definitely want to be a part of this lifestyle.' Then there was a period of time where I had so much success in the sport of wrestling, and I was like, 'I don't really need fighting.'

I remember my first World Championships. I got zero turns, and I got turned multiple times, and I was still a World Champion.

I want to make sure that everyone benefits from my success, not just me.

I have a lot of confidence because of my success.
