If it's an emotional chick-flick type of movie, chances are, I'm going to end up crying. I'm not afraid to admit that, because I think emotion is very healthy.

I didn't even drink in college.

Some guys, when they enjoy some success in this sport, they get complacent. Not me. It makes me work and train that much harder, helps to bring out the warrior in me.

The people who know me, the fans who've watched my fights, they know what I'm about. They know that I'm going to give 100 percent of everything I have each and every time I get into the octagon.

When I first started fighting, it was just me. But things changed when I married, knowing that I had another person counting on me.

You got to surround yourself with the strongest in the world, the strongest training partners and the best people. That's what I do.

I've had the belt and it's great. But at the end of the day it's just 12 pounds of leather and gold.

I don't focus on how I'm gonna get the finish or how I would like to get the finish. I focus on just my game plan that I've gone over with myself, my coaches. If the finish comes it comes.

Obviously, as a young, young, hungry fighter, I'd like to be fighting three or four times a year.

There are always a couple of ways you envision fights going; you always envision a win and a great finish.

It's damage to a nerve. It pretty much shut down the whole lower part of my left leg. I wasn't able to step anymore. It's called foot drop - basically, you can't lift your foot.

I just turned 34 and feel like the best striker I've ever been.

I got a wife and a son I have to fight for.

I'm a nasty human being when I step into that cage, but before that I could care less.

I talk to my god every day and he's completely fine with me beating the hell out of people.

You don't hope to go up and hit a single. You go up and hope to hit a home run.

My goal is to win and to finish fights quickly.

Benson is a champion. I'd be lying to you if I said I wasn't scared to death inside this cage, stepping into the cage with that monster.

I pretty much just train... and go to church on Sundays.

I do love the outdoor. Love love the outdoors, fishing and hunting and that kind of thing.

If fighting ever got in the way of my marriage, you'd see me sacrifice my career.

I've been blessed so much in my own life and I want to spread that blessing to others who need it.

I had my first fight in August of 2009 and haven't looked back since.

I never focus on my opponent - I focus more on myself: knowing what my strengths are, where I can take the fight, how I can win the fight, and the intensity that I'm going to bring to a fight.
