Randy Couture and Quinton Jackson both gave me some good advice. Randy’s — and he puts this on all his posters when he signs them — was “The best never rest.” Not that I wouldn’t be doing that without his advice, but I think it’s something that a lot of people don’t realize, so I’m training all the time and trying to improve all the time, and I think that’s important for me as a fighter and for my career. Quinton Jackson and I are buddies — he used to go to all my fights when I first started — and he told me to be a character and focus on one thing. My nickname is “The California Kid,” and he was like, “Man, if I were you, I’d be throwing up the `hang loose’ sign in the ring…just run with it.”

— WEC Featherweight Champion Urijah “The California Kid” Faber. He’ll be defending his title against Jeff “Big Frog” Curran on December 12th. I suspect he won’t be resting for long even if he keeps the belt.
