I've been around fighters enough to know that you have to be able to give 100 percent of your effort and time into training for a sport.

I think Anderson Silva is ahead of Chuck Liddell as far as that goes.

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.

We need more guys that are solid talents all around and Frank Mir proved himself and I don't think anyone is going to second guess him every again.

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

I think when it comes to Anderson Silva, it comes down to his speed, his distance and his timing are impeccable. They are second to none and that's what makes him dangerous.

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.
