I have gone from training by myself to having a team of professional people that have been building athletes for years.

People say they start from the bottom. If you want to see someone who's started from the bottom, go and look at my career. My first 10 fights, I think I paid for them myself. I've fought three times in one month.

My career does not depend on AJ. He's got four of the belts, but if I'm mandatory for one or two of them and he doesn't fight me, they will strip him at some point.

I'm 30. I'm about to hit my prime now. I need to act and keep building.

I spent 20 years of my career primarily being a writer for hire.

I have been very inspired and influenced by 'The Little Rascals' my entire career.

I was asked to do a test commercial shoot for an Apple product which didn't mean much to me at the time. Some music player that holds all your songs. Sounded cool to me and I never gave up an opportunity to work, especially with the possibility of it turning into a national commercial. Coolest job I did in that time.

I have a schizophrenic career. I have 'Cronos' and 'The Devil's Backbone' on one hand, and then I have 'Blade 2' and 'Mimic' on the other.
