Style-wise, dos Santos is going to be an excellent fight for me - striker against striker. With my experience, I should have the upper hand.
I still believe I can be a striker but, if you want to be a striker, you have to think more about yourself and that's why you are a striker.
I think Rory MacDonald is a great striker, I think Jorge Masvidal is an excellent striker.
When I was scheduled to fight in Japan, and then I would come back to the United States, I would have to train, but there was nobody to train here. There was no such thing as a striker going with a grappler, or a striker going to the ground with a grappler, or a grappler standing up and fighting with a boxer.
Listen to what I'm saying: I'm back. Junior Dos Santos, Alexander Volkov, or revenge against Stipe Miocic. That fight, I didn't do well, and I really want to fix it.
My second year in Rome was very good. Back then, a striker was a striker. Strikers scored goals; they didn't defend. Today this is normal, but it wasn't at that time. If you wanted to play my style of football you couldn't have old players or famous players who were unwilling to do the job both ways: attacking and also defending.
I'm showing the boss what I can do. I was bought as a striker and I always believe I am a striker.
I am a striker, and people expect strikers to score goals. But I don't see myself as a striker.
In this system, I've always played in the position behind the striker. I also don't enjoy being classed as a striker - I don't see myself as one.
Everyone gets in a bad mood at some point - a striker because there is allegedly a new striker on the way, the same for a midfielder.
Niang is very good in front of the goal, and he's also a quick learner. He is a versatile striker who can play both as a centre forward and as a second striker.
I like to play as a striker or secondary striker.
OK - we like to say how a striker creates space and influences matches in other ways, but let's not pretend: at the end of the season, the best striker everyone talks about is the top scorer.
If you trained jiu-jitsu his whole life, why would you trade punches on fight night against a striker?
You need two or three players who can do that - play behind the striker, on the right wing, the left wing... striker, maybe. If we have those, it's good for the team.
I used to play as a striker in Holland. I grew up as a striker. That's the position I want to play.
As a striker you are always at the top of the pitch when play is going on in and around your own box, so for me playing up here at St James' Park and hearing the noise when Newcastle have scored against us, it's the passion, you see the fans going crazy and it just feels you with energy.
