Seems like people get obsessed about times and numbers and weights and that - I'm obsessed with winning.

It's important to stay hydrated - first thing I do in the morning is stretch and drink water.

Sometimes I train in the middle of the night, all on my own. Can't sleep, don't want to sleep, get up, go to the gym, work. This is early for me, being here at half ten in the morning, this is really early, and I'm only here because I screwed up yesterday and kept you hanging around. Other times I'll call up my wrestling coach, or my jiu jitsu coach, or my deep-tissue guy, and want to really focus on one part of what I do. I train in all these different disciplines.

I don't watch the news, I don't care about politics, I don't care about other sports.

I worked my ass off to earn what I have. You have to understand, not many people where I come from get to experience this kind of life.

A fight is mental, not just physical and psychological warfare is absolutely part of that.

Getting enough protein is important when I train, to help build muscle and recover, so I'll supplement with protein shakes.
