I do not care who I fight. Line them up. I will let the fans pick. That is the way to do it because I am a fans' fighter. I want to fight the people they want me to fight.

I want to be the best role model I can be for my family.

I want our kids to know that we have to feel our bodies. And nutrition is a huge part of that.
