fighting games care
Listen, I am in the fighting game, I don't care about anything else.
fighting mma get-better
I don't feel negative emotions. I feel calm, composed and ready. And as it goes on I get better at it. By the time the fight is on, I don't feel any emotions at all.
fighting
Late switches are part of fighting and I've handled them all.
fighting shy term
I won't ever shy away from a fight and if it makes sense down the road, I'll do it. But it will be on my terms.
hard-work fighting mma
I work hard and fight easy.
fighting animal people
There are people who have great skills, who do great things, but don't embody the whole animal that is the fight game like I do.
adversity fighting mma
Face adversity head on in your training and you will conquer it smoothly in your fight.
fighting boys games
One of the reasons I got into this game was because I wanted to learn how to get myself comfortable in uncomfortable situations. I grew up in a tough area of Dublin, and fighting was just part of your life. Boys fight, and I won some, but I lost a lot too, and I didn't like that, I didn't like that feeling of not knowing whether I was in danger, in trouble.
real adversity fighting
Real champions fight through adversity.
sports couple fighting
It's gone, boxing's gone. What is there in boxing? Who is there to talk about, who is there that people go, "Yeah I want to fight him?", and fans go "I wanna see that fight"? There's Floyd Mayweather, and he is 38, 39, he's maybe got one fight left. What else is there? He'll have a last fight or two and a couple of guys will get a few million dollars, but way less than I'm gonna be getting in future. This sport is getting bigger all the time, and I am making it bigger.
sweet fighting serious
If I could bust out and eat anything... if I ever stop fighting, I could put on some serious weight with sweets.
sports fighting thinking
I am in the fighting game, I don't care about anything else. I don't watch the news, I don't care about politics, I don't care about other sports. I don't care about anything I don't need to care about. This is my sport, it is my life. I study it, I think about it, all the time. Nothing else matters.
fighting thinking smell
I don't give a f***. We're not fighting. I don't care what anyone thinks about me. All the stuff I have to do outside the fighting, the promotion, this, I don't give a f***. But when I am facing up for a fight, I know what they're thinking. I can read their minds. When I am going face to face with an opponent, nose to nose, I can smell the fear, and I'm feeling no fear at all.
