“There’s nothing I really want to accomplish. I already set my family up pretty good right now.”

You eat salad and you’re hungry the next 30 minutes and you’re hungrier from when you ate the damn salad.

I speak my mind too much, and the UFC probably don’t really like that. But I really don’t care.

I just feel that all the top fighters in the world are making all the money.

This heavyweight division, it takes just one punch for anyone. It doesn’t matter how hard you train or what.

I don’t even train for these fights. I’m not mad when people say that because it’s true.

I just believe that my heart is the best in the sport. And I believe that’s what carried me through my whole career. Not my talent or my power or anything like that. I just believe my heart.

I’m just going to keep fighting, try to stay active as much as possible.

I’m fighting just so I can take care of my family.

I don’t care where I’m at in the heavyweight division. As long as I win enough, so they keep me. That’s about it.

I have a lot of anger built up in me from my childhood. My wife and kids are the only ones who give me peace in this world.

I know just about everything that really goes on with domestic violence.

Brock Lesnar is not a fighter. He’s scared to be hit.

A lot of people said I would never make it, and this and that, I’d never be a top 10 fighter, that I’d never fight for a title. Just stuff like that. Achieving all those goals and being the person that I am, this is going against everything everyone said I couldn’t do.

I always had dreamed one day Bruce Buffer’s going to be introducing me. Derrick ‘The Black Beast’ Lewis and I just always pictured him saying it.

I have a couple of properties. Bought some houses and just rent them out.

I’ve been having people doubt me all my life.
