“If I can fight at UFC Rio it’ll be perfect, but if not then I’m sure that in September I’ll be prepared to fight.”
“(Brock Lesnar) is a guy I’ve always wanted to confront and it’d be a great fight. I enjoy fighting big guys, I think it forces me to use my speed and my guard. I’ll be healed of my injuries, that were putting me off from playing my guard, and I’ll be 100 per cent.”
“I think I had great fights, I’ve fought the best of my division, I didn’t have any easy opponent. I really am one of the guys who fought great guys… but I have much more to show you, I am not done yet.”
