A Quote by Eddie Alvarez

I started this fight career with one objective. When I step inside a ring or an octagon, it is to beat the guy in front of me.

I fight for the women. I try to do my best inside the Octagon to fight like a man; then, people will respect girls in the Octagon.

Cris Cyborg

Fighting in the cage brings much more adrenaline than fighting in the ring. When you step inside the Octagon and they close the door, that's really a high adrenaline feeling because they enclose you and one guy in the cage.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira

I've done nothing but show up and fight, go to work inside the Octagon, outside the Octagon, and do things right. But people want to talk about me and discredit me.

Daniel Cormier

I understand the psychology of the sport, especially inside the ring. From bell to bell, from when my entrance plays and I step through that curtain, people have to wonder what's going on inside that guy's head.

Randy Orton

My role models are every single woman that steps inside of the cage - inside of an octagon, inside a ring, or on a mat - and proves to themselves and to others that they can do what they need to do. Those are my heroes. Those are my sheroes. Those are the people that I look up to.

Fallon Fox

Before, early in my career, it was always just go out there and beat the next guy up. Whoever they put in front of me,just go beat him up. Everything else would take care of itself. You want more money? Go beat the next guy up, it will take care of itself. You want better sponsors? Go beat the next guy, it will take care of itself.

Benson Henderson

I've always said I have very good timing. It is underestimated when you are outside the ring but once you get inside the ring with me, I'm a step ahead.

Mikey Garcia

There are a lot of times I have seen someone fight, and I think the guy is tailor made for me until they actually get in the ring with me. Fighters that are more aggressive match up better with me. There is really no defense when a guy is trying to get you. When a guy is trying to get you, you cannot get him, which makes the most compelling fight.

Evander Holyfield

For me, I had that reputation as being a guy that did a lot of stuff early on in my career, but to me, at the time I needed to do that in order to be noticed. Eventually, my style evolved and started making it to where every match wasn't about a dive outside of the ring.

Sean Waltman

I go inside the Octagon for fight. I don't joke, because it's danger.

Anderson Silva

Once you're inside the ring, a fight is a fight. Fans can't fight for you, the hometown crowd can't fight for you.

Celestino Caballero

Every fight is a fight for my life. And I step in the ring and make sure that I fight with that on the back of my mind.

Jermell Charlo

I refuse to step inside the ring and fight like a gladiator against my own. I'm not playing that game. Any woman who has survived a year or more of making music has my undying respect.

Shirley Manson

I've got no desire to fight Dereck Chisora inside the ring or outside the ring.

David Haye

I started boxing for exercise, and on the very first day, the trainer got in the ring with me and said, 'Whoever controls the breathing in the ring controls the fight.' I immediately passed out.
