“I feel (Efrain Escudero) is a really tough dude, who fights with a lot of heart. But I think Darren (Elkins) is more technical than he is.”
“(I compete in Jiu-jitsu tounaments to) keep up my rhythm and gas, since I have to do a number of matches on the same day and against better and better opponents.”
“(My UFC win) was a marvelous sensation and the result of lots of dedication in training.”
“In these days leading up to the fight I’ll wrap up my training with Macaco (Jorge Patino) at the academy in Texas. I trained hard with my family here at Bronx’s Gold Team.”
“Cosmo Alexandre helped me a lot and now it’s time to go to war.”
