There was no title fight in any organization in the world that in my opinion was absurd for me to be a contender in.

If a guy isn't in a position to fight for a world title, or if he's not in a place where I can intercept his road to the title, don't offer him to me. I'm not in this to just fight guys for the sake of fighting. I'm not in this to make friends with the people who work in the organization.

Tyron Woodley

My first MMA fight was July 2006 here in Brazil. I won a few fights here in Brazil, and then I got a chance to fight in the UFC, but they put me against the number one contender for the title at that time. It was Fabricio Werdum.

Junior dos Santos

They said if I'd fight a ranked contender, I'd get a title shot. I did that, and the next day they changed the rules.

Gerry Cooney

I think that Karate Hottie can get me the title shot... That's who I've been waiting for, karate versus karate, and I think that's a big enough fight to propel me into the No. 1 contender spot.

Tecia Torres

This fight means the world to me. It's what I've been dreaming about since I was 10 years old to win a world title. I'm going in their with nothing less than a victory. I think it's safe to say the fight is not going the distance and it's going to be a fight of the year candidate. He's going to come to fight, I'm coming to fight and I plan on leaving September 8th as the new world champion

John Molina, Jr.

I'd like to fight and get close to that title shot - that's all I'm interested in. My whole purpose is to fight for the world title.

Mark Hunt

An interim title is just a guarantee at a title shot. If I'm going to fight the best guys in the world, I want a guarantee that I'm going to fight for the title.

Luke Rockhold

As long as it was George Groves in the opposite corner with his world title, the date was irrelevant to me. I was prepared to wait as long as it took to get that fight for the world title.

Callum Smith

I don't need to chase titles because I've fought in so many title fights and so many title fight-level matches that if somebody thinks I need to give them a reason to give me a shot at any belt in the world, then clearly they don't know what they're about as far as MMA.

If someone said to me you can get five million quid, a world title, fight at Wembley with a fight that every fan wants to see, it's a no-brainer for me.

Kell Brook

As a World Champion, it is important that you face the #1 contender. That is what makes it sport and not entertainment; otherwise, what are the girls fighting at 145 lbs. training to work towards if they know they will never be given a title shot, even if they become the best in the world?

Cris Cyborg

If I want to fight for a 155-pound title - if I hold the 145-pound title - give me the fight.

Max Holloway

For me, to get any match is fine. For me to be thrown right into the mix and be named No. 1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship is a blessing.

John Cena

My dad was in a hospital for months. The doctors told my dad he would never be able to walk again. My dad beat all the odds. He came back and was able to walk and start boxing again. He went to No. 1 in the world at welterweight to fight for the world title. But he never had his chance to fight for a world title.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

Every time you fight for a world championship fighters take pride... it's a special moment to be a main event for a world title fight.

Rory MacDonald

Whether it's the NXT title or the United States title or the Intercontinental title or the World title, if I have that title, then that's the most important one.

Kevin Owens
