“When I was 14 years old in Ecuador, I was telling everybody I want to be a UFC fighter, I want to be a world champion, I want to move to U.S. and train with a real gym. Looking back, everything was a fantasy back then, but nobody knew I was being for real. That was my dream.”

“It doesn't matter who is in front of me. I just focus on getting better, and I've been showing that fight to fight.”

“When a fighter has motivation and is hungry, things happen.”

“I'm going to be a 'Chopped' champion.”

“I want to go for that title shot, I want to be champion.”

“Whether I ever become WWE champion in my career, I'm proud of what I've done.”
