I'm an optimistic guy.

I don't care what people think.

I gotta work on my overall game.

I just have a crazy sense of humor.

For sure, I would love to fight in Houston.

I've been having people doubt me all my life.

I really don't punch with my left hand anyways.

I grew up watching my mom and my stepdad fight.

I hate being in boring fights. It frustrates me.

Whatever the UFC wants to pay me for, that's fine.

I know I only need one punch to knock any guy out.

As long as they pay me good, that's all I care about.

I've been in deep waters a bunch of times in my fights.

I don't care if I ever fight for the belt or get the belt.

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

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

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

I believe the tough fights bring out the better fighter in myself.

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

I don't want to fight once a year. I like fighting every other month.

I'm just going to keep fighting, try to stay active as much as possible.

I know just about everything that really goes on with domestic violence.

I have a couple of properties. Bought some houses and just rent them out.

My goal is just to make as much money as I can in the sport, and that's it.

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

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

You know, once you have the belt you want to be less active, fighting once a year.

Everyone else is a mixed martial artist. I'm not a mixed martial artist, I'm a brawler.

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

I don't even train for these fights. I'm not mad when people say that because it's true.

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

I set some goals for myself. I really want to run through this whole heavyweight division.

That's usually the way I am - I don't care what my opponent can do. I just focus on myself.

I don't fight just because I love it just that much. I'm fighting because it's a job for me.

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

I go in to fight just to fight. I don't care about submissions, the technique and all of that.

There's nothing I really want to accomplish. I already set my family up pretty good right now.

I speak my mind too much, and the UFC probably don't really like that. But I really don't care.

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

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

That would be great if I could be a role model or inspiration to those who have been in my shoes before.

You eat salad and you're hungry the next 30 minutes and you're hungrier from when you ate the damn salad.

This heavyweight division, it takes just one punch for anyone. It doesn't matter how hard you train or what.

Like a lot of people have said, it's not a bad loss to lose to Mark Hunt, so it's really like a learning lesson.

I don't care where I'm at in the heavyweight division. As long as I win enough, so they keep me. That's about it.

I know I'm the least technical guy in the sport. Most of the champions or guys at the top are real martial artists.

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 have a lot of anger built up in me from my childhood. My wife and kids are the only ones who give me peace in this world.

If I was really trying to be the best fighter in the world, I would be in the best shape and taking it more serious but I'm not.

I tell people all the time that it would be good if they forget about me next week, that they don't even mention my name anymore.
