These kinds of fights, these big fights that get everyone talking and interested, these are the fights I want.
Hopefully in 2011 the fans will get to see some fights that they want to see. Manny Pacquiao Vs. Floyd Mayweather needs to happen, and so does David Haye Vs. Wladimir Klitschko. The fans deserve to see fights that they want to see and not just the fights that the promoters want to see.
People know what to expect from me. When it comes to Roderick Strong, you're going to get everything that I have in my being, and there will be fights that will be like no other fights of the night.
I don't watch a lot of featherweight fights yet some of those fights are the best fights ever.
I just want to make money, get on with my life, and be involved in good fights. If I'm not going to be involved in good fights, then what's the point being a boxer?
I like super fights. I want super fights. I want guys that I can match up well where people don't know what going to happen.
There are major fights for me in the middleweight division. Those are the fights I want and I've been very vocal about it.
Remember this well. There are two kind of fights. As long as we place ourselves in battle, we must always know the difference: fights to defend life... and fights to defend pride.
My first ten fights or so it was like that. I was just so scared. You can see if you go back and watch them that there are moments where I just stop and look around, like, what's going on here? I was so scared for all those fights.
Anybody in Britain, the big fights. I'm here for the big fights. I don't care about the little fights any more.
We as fighters always want to fight the best possible opponents and the best fights. We want the fans and media to be excited about the fights that we have. I now believe that this is a big fight and people want to see it, I'm not sure that was the case a few years back.
I've told the UFC brass I want big fights: fights that are going to put money in their pockets and money in my pockets and staple me as one of the best of all-time.
I want to make great fights, emotional fights, for all my fans and everyone watching.
I'm a firm believer that I'll make fights happen, get the fights done.
If the fights that I take make sense, and there is not a 27-year-old number one contender in the world, then I'll probably be interested in doing fights that make sense and fights that are marketable.
I never picked fights. I'm never going to start to pick fights. If they ask me to fight someone, I'll say yes.
