I know who I am, and that never changes.

I hate to lose but having the belt doesn't define who I am. It's how I live my life and what I put into things is what defines me.

Being in good shape is my lifestyle, and I can't remember a time when I was out of shape. I try to live an active lifestyle and mix up all types of activities like fighting, running and swimming.

I want to be a multi-time champion. I want to be a multiple division champion. I still have a lot of goals; it is a matter of staying the course, being consistent and persistent, and making it happens.

Living the dream is simply a form of living out your passion, of making that passion gradually, through persistence and effort, a central part of your life.

The fight world is definitely a masculine thing, but I think it's pretty masculine if someone can avoid a fight also.

I think my parents gave me a unique name and I have created this unique lifestyle that makes me who I am; it's a cool way of living.
