I'm so busy during my everyday, when I go on vacation I need to pull the plug like they say, and to do nothing.

I had two ACL injuries in my life, and both of them happened when I was training with bigger guys; a heavyweight and a light heavyweight. Sometimes it's not even because the guy is good, you just get hurt.

Respect your opponent, just make them respect you more.

In fighting, in evolution, in life, efficiency is the key.

I don't want things that I regret in life, and things that I have not done - and I don't want to at 80 years wake up, and tell myself: 'Oh I was on top of my shape and skills and I didn't do it.'

A fight is 10% physical and 90% mental.

I want to use every second of my life, every time that I have in my life, to make me a better fighter. That's why I'm a martial artist. For me, it's more than a job - it's a way of living
