I used my Karate footwork to control the distance, and I use is as a penetration drill that I do, this is my speciality, the way I penetrate on people, the explosiveness and the timing. It all started with Kyokoshin and Sports Karate.

It's not the most powerful animal that survives. It's the most efficient.

The danger is not to set your goal too high and fail to reach it. It’s to set your goal too low and reach it

I am a public person and I have my private life. It's important for me that my private life stay private, that what I share with the people is my public personality.

I'm not impressed by your performance.
