Even if we were friends, I consider this a sport, a competition, so there are no ill feelings towards any other fighter or whatever.

This level of competition is extremely high. Everybody is trained. Everybody has a game plan. Everybody has a nutritionist. Everybody has everything. It's here that you realize, as people, we're all equal.

I do believe that Brock Lesnar will be coming back. I don't want to call it from retirement, but he is a huge draw, big guy, sells tickets. So that's a fight I would be interested in.

As a fighter, you need to constantly improve. So that's what we've been doing: constantly improving striking, grappling, wrestling - there's always different aspects to improve.

My dad used to take me and my brothers to the park to play football all the time. I remember every moment.

I play football, not to only enjoy it - and I love the challenge of playing and competing with the best players - but I want to have the chance to win games.

It's true that being in an individual sport, you have to be a little bit selfish.

I am very emotional. It took me many years to recover from the death of my father. Even when I was playing cricket, I wasn't happy. I would just sit and cry. I was very young. He was too young; he shouldn't have gone. Cricket is all right. We all play sport. Good and bad days come.
