Cain's an animal, man. Cain's a competitor. I want to spar with Cain because I know if I'm able to hang with him here in the gym, once I get out there in the cage and fight, I mean, I've already gone toe-to-toe with Cain Velasquez, you know?
I always support British athletes of all sports, including Tyson Fury. I think he's a great boxer. However, if he's calling out UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez, then quite frankly, he's living in a fantasy world and needs to come back to reality.
I train with top guys like Chuck Liddell and Lyoto Machida, I have trained with Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez, and nobody have ever dominated me.

It's a dream of mine to fight for the title especially against a guy like Cain Velasquez because I know it's going to be a big challenge.
Cain Velasquez, he has some technical difficulties, but he has ambition, and he's fearless. He wants to win so badly, and he's in great condition. He's a thinking fighter.

I've challenged Cain Velasquez to a fight three times. He's a little boy who doesn't want to fight. He said no, live on TV.
Cain has proven himself as the best heavyweight of all time, and it would be hard to strip him.
Cain Velasquez - he is a good puncher. He is very compact. He's strong. He's very smart. He's a good fighter. He's a warrior.
Cain Velasquez attacks more, and throws more punches and kicks. It's hard to fight against him. He's very athletic, you can see that from his fights with 'Cigano,' but Werdum trains hard and is a great fighter.
I knew that I wanted to apply for a job in the Air Force, that I couldn't because it was a direct-combat, ground-combat role.

I like exciting fighters - Anthony Pettis, Jose Aldo. I like all the great fighters, Cain Velasquez, all the champions. They're so good at what they do. I just admire people who are good at what they do and people you can watch and learn from.
I had a chance to work with Cain Velasquez, Mike Kyle and this was great. And I remember how Bob Cook all the time he did conditioning, yell all the time, 'You have to do better.' He pushed me all the time so I really appreciate him. It was a great experience for me.
