If you count all fights like everybody else does, including Rickson, who says he has 400 fights; if you count like that, I have a million.

I knew I wasn't going to lose and that was based on the fact that I wanted not to lose.

Usually, a well thought answer makes an aggressor think twice.

Jiu-jitsu is personal efficiency to protect the weaker, which anyone can do. It is the force of leverage against brute force.

Always assume that your opponent is going to be bigger, stronger and faster than you; so that you learn to rely on technique, timing and leverage rather than brute strength

The Jiu Jitsu I created was designed to give the weak ones a chance to face the heavy and strong.

For the choke, there are no "tough guys". With an arm lock he can be tough and resist the pain. With the choke he just passes out, goes to sleep.
