I was actually born in Sacramento, in Rocklin, which is a suburb of Sacramento. I lived there for the first 8 years of my life.

Ben Askren is a joke. The guy has no skills.

I'm a bad person.

If you have a sleeping disorder, just get TyQuil: Tyron Woodley, the gossip girl.

The division needs a guy like me. It's a bunch of good guys, and I'm the only bad guy in the division. There always has to be a bad guy in every movie.

There's never any issues with Colby 'Chaos' Covington. I always do the right things.

As far as standup goes, I really feel like I can stand and bang and trade with anybody in the game.

I'm always training, whether I'm training my mind, or I'm training my body. I'm always doing something.

I'm in this to be the best fighter in the world, to put on entertaining shows, and to please the fans.

When I fight, people are going to watch me fight. They're not gonna turn the channel to 'Real Housewives of OC' like they will other fighters.

I'm the biggest draw. I do the biggest numbers in this division, and it's not even close. There's a reason all these guys want to fight me. They don't want to fight Tyron Woodley. Because I'm the biggest fight and the biggest draw in the division.

Usman's a scrub, man. He's not relevant. No one cares about him. People don't want to see him fight.

Being at American Top Team, I get the best fighters and best trainers in the world.

I don't really feel like rankings mean anything.

I'm looking for three belts. I'm looking to do something that's never been done in this sport. I wanna go down to 155. I wanna go up to 185 and take the belt.

I'd love to go to Russia and silence that crowd and give the Russian fans something to cry about.

Robert Whittaker hasn't been that impressive. He got knocked out by choir boy Stephen Thompson.

I know that my grappling is up there with any grappler in the division.

I've really taken a lot of time to work on my Karate, worked on my kickboxing, and Muay Thai.

I'll use wrestling if I need to in fights, but maybe I'll fight another wrestler, and you'll find out how good my striking is.

Everybody in the world knows how good I am.

Tyron Woodley knows how good I am.

I'd probably be, like, a 2-to-1 favorite over Woodley if we fought.

Demian Maia is a one-trick pony.

Tyron Woodley can't top me, and Demian Maia has no chance to stop me.

If I can't do one thing, which is a lower body exercise, then I'm gonna use my upper body, and I'm gonna get stronger upper body. If I'm not getting stronger upper body, I'll be working on my cardiovascular - swimming or other exercises where I can get my heart rate up.

If the UFC wanted to give me Warlley Alves, I would show them how chump change he is. And I'd show them how much of a fluke it was that he caught me in a lucky submission.

You can't come in and invade people's personal space because of free speech.

Ben Askren, the only thing we have in common... I have a real belt. He has some belts from back in the day that don't even matter anymore.

Every time the UFC brings me out, I'm always professional. I'm always on time. I make weight.

Who retires before they even get to the UFC? Losers, that's who.

You can't live off your past.

I'm the most hated guy in the division.

I'm the bad guy of the division.

If the UFC doesn't like what I'm doing, it is what it is.

I can beat people on the feet; I can beat people on the ground. It doesn't matter.

Guys have a lot more to worry about when they're fighting me than they do fighting Khabib. He's just one-dimensional.

I'm the most well-rounded fighter on the planet.

I get paid a lot of money to go in there and fight on pay-per-view. I'm not fighting in the street.

All these guys that want to act tough and act like they're hard in the street, that's cool, man. I'm glad you want to act hard, and your emotions are driving crazy, but you need to get out of your feelings, nerds.

Ricardo Liborio is a joke.

I'm ATT to the bone. I have my close circle of people, my clique - Jorge Masvidal, Mike Brown, Dan Lambert. I'm not friends with everybody. It's a gym, but this is a one-man sport.

There's always going to be cliques - everywhere you go, there's gonna be cliques; there's gonna be people that gravitate towards each other.

I've got a lot of respect for Brazil.

I say a lot of truth, and I say something because I mean it.

I always have a reason for why I do something.

Brazil hates me. Oh, big deal. Cry me a river, build a bridge, and walk over it.

There's no one in the division that can beat me; not even the champion can beat me.

I'll fight anyone they put in front of me, man. I'm here to fight and prove that I'm the best in the world.

In my mind, I do have a lot higher wrestling than Woodley. We've wrestled before, and it wasn't competitive, and that's honest.
