“I trained in martial arts and wanted to become a UFC fighter. That was...” — Ryan Guzman Quote

“I trained in martial arts and wanted to become a UFC fighter. That was my goal. I only really learned how to dance three weeks prior to making 'Step Up Revolution.' Dancing will always be fun, but MMA is something I'll never give up. I will eventually get back in the octagon and be fighting professionally again.”

“I'm Mexican-American. My dad was actually born in Mexico. He was raised up there, and he came back and forth to America pretty much his whole teenage years. My mom is from Sacramento, California, and she's a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl. She's a whitey.”

“A lot of people think martial arts are just fighting, but it's character-building, too, and I want to give back.”

“I've learned about my taxes through martial arts! After getting paid for fights, I didn't know what to do with my money or how to handle it. So I've learned a lot from this sport.”

“Most of the martial arts techniques go in waves of popularity and usefulness, but they all work.”
