I'm an Ultimate Fighter winner at 170. At 155, I'm always proving myself. I have nothing to prove to any of the fans, but to myself, it's my skillset.
I'm constantly proving myself. I have to always prove myself. There are roles where I feel like, "That should have been a straight offer. Why am I having to call my people and fight for it?"
I'd be okay with that - staying at 155, making weight at 155 for the rest of my career. But every once in a while, having a super fight at 170 - St-Pierre and I squaring off. I'd be cool with that.
My philosophy in life... is to prove myself to myself and not to others. I tried to teach my children that, that I have to respect myself, to prove to myself that I can do the best I can.
My aim was always to come back and prove myself because that is the type of character I am. Whether I get the chance is another thing, but I always want to prove myself.
I fought well at 155, but I don't think I ever came close to my best at 155. I think I'll get to my best at 170 pounds.
I think my passion for wrestling and this business is clear to any fan out there. I don't feel I need to prove myself to them, but I do need to prove to myself that I can do this.
With all the media attention, all the love from the fans, I felt I needed to prove myself. Prove that I'm not a marketing tool, I'm not a ploy to improve attendance. Prove I can play in this league. But I've surrendered that to God. I'm not in a battle with what everybody else thinks anymore.
I want big games to prove to myself that I'm a winner and not a loser.
I own 170 and 155. These are my weight classes.
I just have to prove to myself, I don't have to prove to fans.
Sometimes at 155 pounds I was the smaller fighter, at 145 pounds I am more often the bigger fighter, and the taller fighter.
That's what I signed up for in the beginning. I was 170 pounds; 155 was forced on me.
When I'm feeling proud of myself, I should remember to ask myself why I think I am of any value at all. I have done nothing that a hundred thousand other people couldn't do, and most of them would probably do it better, and they probably wouldn't feel so self-important about it. I should always be ashamed of myself.
'Fight Master' is a proving ground for young, aspiring fighters who want a chance to play on a bigger stage. That's something it has in common with 'The Ultimate Fighter,' which has always been like a farm league for the UFC, a place to develop new talent.
I've had to prove myself beyond that street-fighter image with some people in the UFC. It has a stigma to it.
I don't feel the need to prove myself to others, but to prove myself to myself
