I think I've been through all the phases of the sport. I won, I lost, I got injured. Now I get to do what I love, with my truth, without worrying about what people will say or things like that.
I don't have a problem putting on or cutting weight. I would adapt my training if I'm training for a Light Heavyweight fight by using different techniques and by wearing a weight vest to get used to the extra fighting weight.
People that want to talk can talk. Even a parrot talks. People are always going to have their thoughts on what they're going to say.
Fighting, for me, is like skydiving without the parachute.
Life is about how much you can take and keep fighting, how much you can suffer and keep moving forward.
I respect all the fighters. I respect Georges St-Pierre because Georges has a great story in the UFC. I respect all the fighters in here because this is the biggest sport in the world.
