Everyone is the same for the first two minutes, everyone has a chance to win, but after that you start to seperate physically and mentally.

I always try to attack. While I'm on the offensive, my opponent can think of nothing but defending.

I wasn’t a good student, and even now I never say that I am better than anybody, but I know I love Jiu Jitsu more than anybody. I love the energy and that it gets deeper the more you study.

When I step on the mat I know there is no other place I'd rather be.

The more you attack, the more your opponent will make mistakes.

Why do I beat a lot of people? Because I love it so much, that’s why. Everything about Jiu Jitsu, I love it – the school, the mat, the ring. I always believe that. Maybe I am not better than my opponent, but I know for sure I love my training more.
