“It’s absolutely atrocious. Strikeforce approached me for the December and January card. … But nobody (Benji Radach, Joey Villasenor, Matt Lindland, Robbie Lawler, Melvin Manhoef) wants to fight me.”
“I’m super frustrated with it. This is a pugilistic sport, is it not? It is the nature of the sport to fight each other. Do I keep waiting these guys out until, in a battle of attrition, somebody gives up and says ‘Tim is the only guy who I can fight, so I’ll take that’?”
“We’ve been talking about (a fight against Jason “Mayhem” Miller). Jason and I have always known that it will eventually come because it is a quick essential Mixed Martial Arts fight …We go out there to ‘fight,’ not try to counter-punch our way to a five-round decision like Jacare did.”
