“The only person that can beat BJ is me. Let me tell you why, despite what you critics say about me. My style is impeccable, ok. First of all, no one can stop the takedown. Second of all, no one can hit me and third of all, no one can take me down. So how do you plan on winning the fight?”
“When you look and you study the statistics of BJ Penn and Saint Pierre, Saint Pierre’s wrestling is not better than mine. His takedown defense is not better than mine. His striking seems to appear to be better than mine. But for the right amount of money, you know, you’re going to get something what you’re looking for. You know, yeah yeah. McKee is boring, boring… f*ck you. I’m the best that there ever was at 155 pounds.”
“BJ I think you’re an excellent fighter, I respect you but it’s time for me to get in that ass too. They say you want to do this and do that because of this or that. Well you have never beat me, my record is 52-2-1. I think I’m a credible person and that fight can’t be boring right, BJ knocks everybody out, he beats them up.”
“Well what’s going to make me exciting, someone that can stop the takedown, someone that can stop the ground and pound. Cause you can see all my opponents get stitches, I walk out untouched. I think you’re mad at me, I think my fans are mad because I look so good when I walk out the ring.”
“Not to be cocky or arrogant, but my job is to do all the punching and miss getting hit. You know what I mean. See, still got all my teeth and I’m 40 years old, I could probably be some of your haters daddies so you should stick up for an old man like me.”
