“I don’t know how to do takedowns.”

I just like being in fun fights.

Everyone else is a mixed martial artist. I’m not a mixed martial artist, I’m a brawler.

As long as they pay me good, that’s all I care about.

The one thing about me, if it is a 15-minute fight, I’m fighting every one of them 15 minutes. And if it’s a 25-minute fight, I’ll be fighting all 25 until the bell rings.

I’ve been through so much stuff that I hope even my enemies wouldn’t have to go through.

I don’t want to fight once a year. I like fighting every other month.

I made my third parole and I believe if I had made it the first time, I wouldn’t be here today. I still would’ve been out there doing stupid stuff.

It’s a job to me, basically. I’m not trying to be the best fighter in the world or nothing like that. I don’t come in trying to think I am the best fighter. I don’t care about none of that. It’s just a job to me.

I just have a crazy sense of humor.

I believe the tough fights bring out the better fighter in myself.

I used to only train 30 minutes a day.

George Foreman acts more like my grandfather. He and my grandfather act just alike – they’re both Christian type guys. They try to help everyone.

It’s like I say all the time, it’s the heavyweight division. It doesn’t matter if the guys a black belt or if he’s a world-class boxer. We still have a 50-50 chance.

I’ve been in that situation three or four times before where I’m losing the fight – the fight seems almost over with – and I knew I had to finish him and stop playing possum as much.

I know Cormier is a wrestler so you really got to get them hips down on him so I’ve been working them hips really good.

Whatever the UFC wants to pay me for, that’s fine.

I dunno, around 11th grade, 12th grade I was just like “yeah. This is something I want to do”. I was always known; I was always the rapper.

The Seeker himself becomes the knower. The thing to be known is already there. There is nothing to be known afresh. More-over there are no two things. There is only the seer, the knower.

Without knowing the Knower, all the knowledge that one gathers cannot be valid.

Knowing the Self, God is known.

Study is to study what cannot be studied. Undertaking means undertaking what cannot be undertaken. Philosophizing is to philosophize about what cannot be philosophized about. Knowing that knowing is unknowable is true perfection.

Does one require proof of one’s own being? Only remain aware of yourself and all else will be known.

Genuine is the sorrow endured without anyone else knowing about it.

All men know the utility of useful things; but they do not know the utility of futility.
