I guess everybody is doing a movie thing, so I'm doing the 'Scorpion King 4.' My role in the movie is as one of the king's guards, with a very original name: Roykus. Apparently, back in the day, everybody's name was 'us,' so 'Roy' plus 'us,' and put a little 'k' in there: Roykus. I'm one of the royal guards, and I do my own stunts like Jackie Chan.

On any given day, I know on any given day I can beat anyone else and knock out anyone else out.

I'm not a UFC athlete. I'm a UFC fighter.

I just want to be agreeable; I want to be a pleaser. And that's all I want to do. I want to please the fans or the haters. One or the other.

If you made the choice to get in there and fight, you have to accept accountability for whatever happens.

Conor McGregor has a beard because of me, because I'm the one who allowed it. If it wasn't for me, none of these guys would have a beard. The same thing with the belly. Fighters who don't look like bodybuilders wouldn't be in the UFC if it wasn't for me. There's a lot of things I've definitely paved the road for.

If you go into 'The Ultimate Fighter' and you're just gonna go in there to get just one fight and win... the premise is to win the whole thing. When I went in, I wanted to win the thing or be cut.

Some athletes can master two sports, but most are only good at one.

Do I want a shot at the belt? Yes, of course I do. Put it this way: I am Barry Sanders on the Detroit Lions. You love to watch me, but you'll never see me play in the Super Bowl. It's just one of those things. It's about politics. It's not about fighting.

I'm just a fat guy.

I think Lesnar could probably beat Fedor, just from pure size.

Anybody that was from the old Pride days is a fighter.

I'm not surprised to be the coach on 'The Ultimate Fighter.'

I like to actually fight. It's just in my blood.

All I know is that Stipe gave me inspiration because if Stipe can be that UFC champion, and they actually gave him a title shot, then I'm like, 'Ah, I do have a chance.'

You have all that muscle on you, you're going to get tired. That's why I prefer to be fat.

I think just more that it's okay for fighters to have a self-esteem. I think I've kind of shown that that's okay. And as long as you put the hard work in, you can accomplish anything.

Carwin, he seems like he trains for five one-minute rounds. That's his championship fight, apparently.

MMA has a lot of those things that you're not allowed to talk about; like, they're completely off-limits. So you have to make a joke out of it.

I am a student first, teacher second.

I'd fight anyone I've ever lost to.

I really enjoyed playing rugby. I loved the camaraderie with the other athletes. It was kind of like fighting. Team fighting.

We handle it from both sides of the coin: from the sport aspect and the entertainment aspect. You gotta have both because we're if not doing solid ratings, we're not going to be on TV.

I just don't want to be one of those guys that's stuck fighting the same opponents again and again.
