sports art thinking
I always think street but train sport.
sports football mean
Ask José Mourinho, he wouldn't know a thing about me, my sport - he knows football, and to get to high levels you have to be insane, nothing else means anything.
sports thinking mma
Think street, train sport.
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.
beautiful sports powerful
It is the most powerful submission in the sport. It is a beautiful thing. You're holding them into you, their back is on you, and you are basically choking them gradually like a boa constrictor and once you've got them, the pressure goes on and they have to submit or they are going to stop breathing. It happened to me early in my career, and I panicked, and gave in, I tapped out too early. I learned a lot from that. I learned from it, learned how to do the move better, learned how to avoid it being done to me.
sports football mean
To do anything to a high level it has to be total obsession. Ask José Mourinho, he wouldn't know a thing about me, my sport - he knows football, and to get to high levels you have to be insane, nothing else means anything. I respect all forms of movement and lifestyles, but I am in a bubble. I wake up, it is in my head; I go to sleep, it's in my head, 24/7.
laughing term
The term "trash talk" is such an American thing. I still laugh at it.
speak speak-the-truth concerned
As far as I'm concerned, I just speak the truth.
mma meditation movement
Movement for me is meditation.
mma games want
I love what I do... When I'm in there I don't want to be nowhere else in the world... I love this game more than anything.
stuff want knows
I don't know why anyone would want to do that politics stuff.
moving mean knowing-everything
I mean I love movement. I mean the energy that comes from the way I move. We get energy from how we move. I mean the control I get from knowing everything about how my body feels and how it is working.
animal
I don't use machines - animals don't use machines.
talking tough said
Whoever said it's tough at the top is talking absolute sh*t.
