My house was a revolving door. You walk in, you walk out, you get whatever you can eat, you leave, you go hang out with friends. I'm on my mission, my sister's on another mission, my dad is working trying to provide, my mom is trying to do the same thing. And somehow, we're all co-existing with each other.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
My house always had at least 14 people in it. And one bathroom. So I didn't really want to be home.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I was blessed to be able to be born here. My dad crossed. My dad illegally went through the border and was living under a bridge; he was homeless. People are making fun of him, beating him up. All kinds of things. After he kind of figured out the situation, he brought my mom over.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I've gotta check, but I think I'll be the first UFC fighter in history to have the lead role in a big movie.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I don't look like a fighter. I like it, though, because it just allows me to be in the position I am now, to where I can venture out to wherever I want to go. I can go into acting. I can go into this; I can go different ways now. And because of fighting, I can do that.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
Put on a camera and put on some whatever, and you're an actor. Put me in a cage, I'm a fighter. Put me somewhere else - I'm in an ocean, I'm a surfer. I don't know what I am, I just do it all. And I want to be good at everything.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
One thing I took - you know, especially from boxing at a young age - from my coach was, if you're a jiu-jitsu guy, and you only cater your training to jiu-jitsu, there's going to come a day and time in your career when you face a guy who is a great wrestler, has great takedown defense, and he's going to make you look silly.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I get this weird feeling that there's bigger things to do still, and I can't wait to figure it out.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I'm not picky; I'll get it how I can take it. Submission, KO - whatever it is, if it has me winning, I'll take it.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
Not too many people present a good ground game from the bottom. They survive a little bit, and it's kind of boring. But not too many people are attacking from the bottom, hurting with elbows. They don't bring that kind of game because it takes a long time to develop.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
My whole life, I thought I sucked. And then I get in here, and I grapple other people, and I'm like, 'I'm actually good.'
Quote by -Brian Ortega
I'm not the perfect person, but I have the perfect heart, I feel, when it comes to helping people.
Quote by -Brian Ortega
For me to be able fight in my home state of New York would be a dream come true.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I grew up taking the Long Island Railroad from Baldwin, New York into Penn Station and walking upstairs to Madison Square Garden. Those are some of my favorite memories.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
When you're so physically and emotionally invested in something - like you have to be in MMA - there's nothing like having your friends and family there to support you on fight night.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
You don't wanna peak too early in training camp, but you don't wanna be out of shape or not to the point where you're able to peak. It's a science to be able to find the happy medium where your body and mind are at their best.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
When I've trained as hard as I possibly can through training camp and I come to the end, where my body is worn out and I'm tired, I know I'm ready to peak.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
The first thing I do when I book a fight is I go to the Internet and I print out a picture of the guy and put it on my refrigerator.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
For me, preparation is all about the physical, the mental and most importantly, the spiritual. If I'm not spiritually in the right place, I'm a mess.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
When I'm getting ready for a fight - when I'm in that locker room or I'm making that walk and I finally get to the Octagon - it's all spiritual.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
You're always trying to feel confident and to feel good about yourself, but what it comes down to is really giving up to someone else. Having faith.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Training is my life. It's all I've known since I was in second grade, when I started wrestling.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I wanna get myself in such good shape that no matter how much I push myself in a fight, I know that the other guy is gonna be a little bit more tired.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Boxing, Jiu Jitsu, some good old-fashioned wrestling and plenty of cardio. You name it, it's part of my routine.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Keeping my focus on what's important - inside the Octagon and out - is never lost on me.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I remember watching Anderson Silva fight Dan Henderson at UFC 82. I had never really watched MMA, but I looked up to Dan Henderson. He was a wrestler, like me, but also a tough, powerful mixed martial artist.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I was living out on Long Island in Baldwin, New York when Hurricane Sandy hit. With the storm surge, the whole first floor of our house was under about three feet of water. We lost a lot of valuable stuff - sentimental stuff like pictures and Christmas ornaments. Nobody expected flooding that bad.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I grew up in a rough neighborhood, so I fought a lot. Even when I was wrestling, if I lost a match, I always thought, That guy would never beat me in a fight.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
From the very beginning, every time I trained for a fight, I didn't train to beat the guy I was fighting. I trained to beat Anderson Silva.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
When I was at 205, it was kind of weird eating whatever I want and not getting trimmed and not really being disciplined with my diet. It was kind of weird.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I have a Gracie background and a Matt Serra background so I've always used jiu-jitsu but it takes a while to reach black belt level.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Rankings don't mean much to me but I'm working towards being the pound-for-pound best in everyone's mind.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Being the guy that ended the run of the greatest fighter ever will always be attached to my name.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I've beaten Anderson twice, then Lyoto Machida and now Belfort. I'll be proud to have taken down three all-time legends in a row.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
The thing about mixed martial arts is you have to know every single martial art in the world or you're at a disadvantage. So, there's so much to learn. I have to know wrestling. I have to know kick boxing. I have to know boxing. I have to know karate.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I like to compete. So, any time I get to go live - which means go all out - that's what I like to do.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Any time you're banged up, your body hurts, you don't really feel like going to the gym. That's when I feel like you really have to push through it. That's when you really make the leaps and bounds in your game. So, pushing through those days is never easy, but that's what gets you good.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
Getting hit is part of the job. You don't want the first time you're getting punched to be in the fight because there's a lot of shock and awe and you won't react well. I like to get hit in sparring. I don't want to get concussed, or I don't want to be getting knocked out, but I want some shock treatment to prepare me for the fight.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
I think there's times where I'm introverted, and there's times where I'm extroverted.
Quote by -Chris Weidman
There's times where you get the loud, crazy comments from me, and there's times where I say basic things, and stay quiet because I don't want to cause any drama. Sometimes I'm in the mood where I'm just going to tell it how it is, and have fun. And whoever doesn't like it, OK.
