I want to keep active, so when they called me to fight Nate Diaz, I agreed because I wanted to stay active. I got a little surprised because he was out so long, but he's a tough opponent.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I always trained hard in my life to win the title, and I will train twice as hard to stay at the top.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Every night that I put my head on the pillow, I go to sleep knowing that I can do more. I'm working toward perfection. I'm trying to be the best ever.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
You can promote fights - of course, you have to - you can say 'I'll beat you' or whatever, but you cannot put family, religion, anything like that in the mix. You need to separate things. That is a line a lot of fighters cross.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I think between 2014 and 2015, I made weight five times in 11 months. During that time, I felt my body change. It was able to hold on to more weight. And anybody who makes weight knows that it gets harder and harder to make weight once you've done it that many times.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I'm the former lightweight champion. I want to fight one of the top guys. I don't want to fight a guy who isn't ranked.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
If you're out for two years, and you beat one guy with a full-time job, without disrespect, but we're talking about fighting for a world title. You can't just beat a guy that went there to cover some guy that got injured, and then this guy, after two and a half years, gets a title shot.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I beat Diaz, Pettis, Ben Henderson, Cerrone, and I earned it, man. I earned my title.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I'm under contract. Whatever the UFC asks, I have to do because they are my bosses and they treat me very well. I can't complain about that, and it's this, man: When you have a boss, you need to follow orders.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
People don't believe in me very much, but I have my teammates and my family that believe in me so much; they see how hard I work.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Everybody likes money. I like money. I need money to survive. But I don't love money. Money is not my god.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
People say McGregor is tall and all that. He's as tall as I am, or maybe even shorter. He might have a longer reach, but I've fought Nate Diaz and Cerrone, who had reach advantage, and fought Anthony Pettis and Ben Henderson.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Press conferences aren't the best thing to do, but it's part of the job.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I'm always looking for perfection. Even after training and my coaches say I did good, I always think I could have done more.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Power is natural, but it can be improved with a lot of work. It's been something I've focused on for a couple of years because I saw it as a place where I could make improvements.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
A lot of people tell me I have to trash-talk more, but I got here with my fists, fighting, not with my mouth.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
I don't want to just be a champion, and I'm done with that. I wanna be a lightweight legend.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
It doesn't matter who they put in front of me, I just want people to remember me.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Everybody needs money, but I'm a fighter. For what I make, I'm happy with what I make. The money is not everything; it's about honor.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
Man, Ben Henderson, Donald Cerrone... these guys are a different level, man.
Quote by -Rafael dos Anjos
A lot of fighters come from Brazil. We've been doing this for long, long years.
