I have too many guys that count on me as a coach so in 2009 you're going to see me in a lot of cages and rings but I'll only be in them to corner my fighters.

I'm proud of them and I am happy to see that the Frank Mir that we all wanted to see back in the day is truly here and I think he's here to say. I have a really good friend in his trainer, Ken Hahn at Striking Unlimited and I'm glad that they're getting the respect that they deserve now.

If I had train someone to fight Anderson Silva that would probably be my biggest challenge yet as far as being prepared for a striker.

I think Frank Mir was 100 percent underestimated and I'm really happy to see the result because I think we needed it in the heavyweight division.

I ever said back when we had our choice words I still told everybody that I respected him. I wouldn't want to have to do [Joe Rogan] job and I don't know anybody else that could do his job.

There's a lot of great strikers in the business but no one should ever forget about Chuck Liddell.

The strange part of MMA is that you lose one or two fights and people start to question you but he was on top for so long and it was purely his striking that made him so good. Nobody can step backwards and knock someone out as well as Chuck Liddell can.
