“Being a black belt from the Nogueira brothers, I have the obligation to always defend myself well on the ground.”

“The fact is that everything I've done, no one else could do. I don't want to be cocky or arrogant or think I'm the best, but what I've tried to do all those years was to show I was different from the others. And that's not my opinion, but everyone's.”

“I go inside the Octagon for fight. I don't joke, because it's danger.”

“Everybody fights for money, of course, but I wanted to leave a legacy when I retired, get my name in the history. I don't think like that anymore. When I lost the belt, I saw how reality is. Champion means nothing.”

“I'll just keep making money, and eventually the belt will come to me.”

“If you hold the belt, you have to fight anybody.”
