When you talk about somebody being your world champion, you couldn't ask for a better human being than Daniel Cormier.

At the end of the day, when you're dealing with heavyweights who can punch, anything is possible. When you've got a big heavyweight who has knockout power, anything's possible.

Everything that ever happened to me in my career, Trump was the first guy to pick up the phone and reach out to me.

As an American, you can do whatever you want to do, and you can choose whatever side you want to be on.

You'll never hear me say a negative thing about Donald Trump.

I'm a loyal person, man, and people who have been good to me in my life, I don't forget and I stand by them.

I'm not a political guy at all, not even a little bit.

There are things that some Democrats say I agree with and some things that I disagree with. And it's the same with the Republicans.

I hate Showtime, I can't stand those guys.

Conor McGregor has that fight anybody, anywhere attitude but doesn't just have the attitude, he lives it.

This country has been very good to us, every time we have a fight in the UFC it's incredible here in Australia and we want to go everywhere. We want to travel everywhere and continue to do fights all over the country.

If you get into something that you're passionate about, and if you really believe in it, you gotta get up every day and fight.

The absolute worst part of my job is having to cut people. I have to cut people after every show, that's just how it goes. But I don't judge you on wins and losses. What I do care about is a great fight.

I have the vision for where the sport is gonna go and what we're gonna do and the different types of fights.

If you're not that big pay-per-view star, shut up and fight.

When you have a concept and a sport like this, you have to have a vision.

Whether boxing is fixable or not remains to be seen. I'm going to give it a shot.

If a rating is bad in another sport, do you see a writer say, 'This sport's over?' No.

We're going to continue to go into markets that we've never been in, continue to grow the sport, continue to cultivate talent and the whole landscape of television is changing and I feel like we're ahead of the curve on that, too.

Since the beginning of time people have said mean things to each other in a fight, no matter what.

Outdoor stadiums scare me to death.

I like Mark Hunt and I've always said good things about Mark Hunt. He goes a little bit off the rails every now and again, but I've never done anything but respect Mark Hunt.

The fighters in the UFC are treated very well.

I like most of the guys in the sport. They're my friends. We're not going to mistreat the fighters. I wouldn't mistreat a friend and so I won't mistreat my fighters.

I don't dislike Matt Lindland. I didn't blackball him from the UFC, either. Matt Lindland is a good guy and I've never had a personal issue with him.

I love this sport. I love the fights and I love most of the guys in it.

I love to win.

We make dream fights all the time.

All you've ever seen in the UFC was the greatest athletes in the world. Never, ever did we do a freakshow and we won't.

One thing I can't prove, but I firmly believe is that two men were put on this earth - one threw a punch and a third guy came over and watched. And that happened before anybody ever threw or kicked a ball.

One of my big philosophies is that fighting is the sport that crosses all borders. I don't care what color you are, what country you come from or what language you speak, fighting is in our DNA. We get it and we like it.

The thing about Twitter is it goes directly to your phone like I sent you a text. It's so powerful, it's unbelievable.

I love talking directly to the fans.

When Georges St-Pierre goes away, what's going to happen to the UFC? Uh-oh, when Anderson Silva is gone, what's going to happen?' The answer is: Yes, there are other stars.

I've had a great relationship with Fox since Day 1. Fox was the network that I wanted to be on.

There's only so many things you can do with fights, so I'm always trying to shake it up and find something different, new, exciting and fun.

Look, people have been filming fights since the beginning of time.

Ronda Rousey is a huge star.

Boxing is very one dimensional. You can hit to the head, you can hit to the body. As soon as two guys get into a clinch, you're separated.

When there's millions of dollars at stake, everybody is going to look for an advantage.

Different people respond differently to head trauma than others.

You can't force fighters to fight.

I like guys to stay at their weight classes and dominate. I don't want guys moving up and down.

We put on fights between the best fighters; we don't put on freak shows.

As long as we have enough fighters and fight cards to keep everybody fighting three times a year, that's where I want our roster to be.

I do everything through Twitter, YouTube or the Internet somehow.

Ever since I've been on Twitter, my number of followers has kept going up and up.

Any new thing that comes out with the ability to enhance our show or my ability to communicate with fans and give people more behind-the-scenes access, you know we'll be all over it.

Listen, I've been wrong before, and I'll be wrong again.

Everyone has jitters in their first fight.
