I'm always striving to be a better man to God, a better husband, a better Dad so it's just work, but I'm committed to it.

I like to talk come fight night, that's how I do it, but I'm not a pushover.

The way my father raised me, we don't pat ourselves on the back. We don't call ourselves great, we let other people do that.

That's what makes a fighter. I got dropped and I got back up, and I found a way to get the win.

It's one thing to have an eye for the sport, and it's another to have a feel for the sport. He has both.

I got knocked down, I don't know how many years ago and I haven't been off my feet since, and I responded again against the best in division without the respect of having the chin I'm supposed to have.

You're only as good as your last fight. It's just the way things are. It's the way that the sport is built.
