I train year-round.

God has good plans for me.

I respect all my opponents.

I never choose my opponents.

Nothing is impossible for God.

Obviously I'm going to have haters.

I cannot make 135 pounds healthily.

I'm calm some days, sweet some days.

I never say bad things about my opponent.

If you have the belt, you have to fight anyone.

If you hold the belt, you have to fight anybody.

I love striking, but MMA and Muay Thai are different.

I love my job. I love to fight, and I love to compete.

It's no secret that the UFC doesn't promote Brazilians.

Not a lot of girls can KO fighters. I KO all the girls.

I'm known worldwide for my talent and my team, Chute Boxe.

I think I did a lot for my division. My division is my story.

I think if you are champ, you shouldn't choose your opponents.

I'm a big fan of Wanderlei Silva; he's a big international idol.

I think, as a professional, inside the cage you can fix anything.

I really want to fight Ronda. The problem is, I can't drop to 135.

I'm a two-time world champion in jiu-jitsu. I can try to submit you.

I feel great at 145. This is my division. I'm open to fight anybody.

I think when you train in just one sport separately, you learn more.

I think when I fight, I make it exciting. I like to excite the fans.

Everybody has a game plan, but the plan changes after the first punch.

I was a very good athlete: actually professional in the sport of handball.

I want to make super fun fights for all my fans so people will remember me.

I don't want to talk trash about somebody: I want to prove it inside the cage.

Who's the best MMA fighter of all times? I always left that for fans to decide.

In reality, we can only talk about things that we already overcame in our minds.

I'm open for big fights, and it would be my dream to make my division in the UFC.

I have a dream fight - boxing fight - and I am for sure gonna fight a boxing fight.

I never turn down fights. Anybody who follows my career knows that I accept fights.

I like training hard. I like to punch the face. I like getting punched in the face.

I want to make great fights, emotional fights, for all my fans and everyone watching.

I believe I deserve to be respected as an athlete because I'm a pioneer in this sport.

Trash talk is not my thing. I believe I have other weapons to make a fight get booked.

Who inside MMA that's a champion goes to fight Muay Thai? Nobody. But I love competing.

I think it would be the biggest fight ever. Me and Ronda Rousey. Everybody wanna watch.

People say what they want in interviews, but when they get a contract, they say other things.

I'm already used to being a target, so I'm building a castle with the stones people throw at me.

A fighter has to be prepared for anyone, to train every day. That's what I learned at Chute Boxe.

I'm proud to know that I never needed an event to promote me, and I never had to lie about anyone.

Gina Carano is a great athlete, and I'd be happy if she returns to MMA - doesn't matter if it's against Ronda.

I think everyone has something special. I respect all my opponents. I've learned something from all my fights.

If I make 140, I sacrifice a lot of things in my life: my diet, my training, my thyroid. It's insane to make 140.

Sometimes people fight with injuries and nobody knows, so it's important for the fans to see what we do to - for everything.

I always admired Dana White as a great businessman that always believed in MMA and helped our sport to grow around the world.

I think when you lose the fight, it's not the end of the world. You can keep training and catch up and try again better, you know?
