“I don't have any ill will towards any of my opponents. I understand we...” — Robert Whittaker Quote

I don't have any ill will towards any of my opponents. I understand we are the highest calibre of athlete in this sport, and we will both go and give it our all. But I don't want anyone to misinterpret what I am saying: when we step into that octagon and we touch gloves, I am going to break his face.

Basically, I try to get across my striking, wrestling and grappling, and jujitsu. Every day, across the board, I try to get an equal amount of sessions throughout the week because I need to improve in all aspects of my fighting.

Fighting is fighting. Family life is family life. I need a distinct barrier between the two. Obviously, my family dictate how I'm feeling and my head space. But work's work.

I like eating. I like food.

Normally, when I skydive, even in winter, I wear very thin gloves. I want to be flexible, with fast reactions.

Every good fighter knows when to hang up the gloves.

I was No. 1 in Golden Gloves, I was No. 1 at nationals. You can go down the list.

I am trying to be better than anybody who ever laced up a pair of boxing gloves, and I think that pretty much sums up everything.

Honestly, in this sport everyone is so good, everyone is so talented. You fight with four-ounce gloves on - in a perfect world, you'd be undefeated and walk away. That's a small percentage. That's Floyd Mayweather.
