I don't get much credit for being the first Ultimate Fighter.
We have come a long way from the first season of 'The Ultimate Fighter.'
One thing I see in a lot of coaches is they try to live through the fighter. You can't live through the fighter. You gotta allow the fighter to be the fighter, and do what he do, and you just try to guide him. Why should I have to live through a fighter, when I went from eating out of a trashcan to being eight-time world champion? I stood in the limelight and did what I had to do as a fighter. I've been where that fighter is trying to go.
I have to give credit to Hector Camacho. He's a much better fighter than I anticipated.
I'm not ruling out the possibilities of being an 'Ultimate Fighter' coach.
When I found out that I was picked to be on 'The Ultimate Fighter,' my first thought is that my dream had come true.
I am very much a girly girl as well as being this tough, athletic fighter. I grew up a tomboy. I got my first four wheeler when I was eight. I got my first dirt bike shortly after. So, I have a lot of these manly qualities, I guess you would say. But, I also like to go get dressed up every weekend.
Maybe now people will give a man credit where credit is deserved. Roy Jones was beaten by a better fighter period. I'm one of the best in the world.
I've got to become 'The ultimate Ultimate Fighter.'
The most important thing for a fighter pilot is to get his first victory without too much shock.
What looks better with that 'Ultimate Fighter' plaque that's on my wall? That belt. I'll tell you what, I won't stop until I get it.
Before The Ultimate Fighter, I was appearing before a couple of hundred people at most. Now, I'm on the card of a Las Vegas blockbuster... this is every Australian fighter's dream.
So, if I give any credit, besides giving all credit to God, for being totally healthy, it's just my workout and how much torture I put my body through in the offseason.
Everybody sees it and thinks it's so exciting. They don't realize it's a professional sport. Everyone wants to be an ultimate fighter until they get hit.
Being recognized as the pound-for-pound No. 1 fighter is my ultimate dream.
I got into the UFC after six months of training. I started doing jiu-jitsu, had my first fight, tried out for 'The Ultimate Fighter,' and got on.
But I was very disappointed that I didn't get a chance to go overseas with that group, might not have gotten back but I wanted very much to go because there's not much of a record of the exploits of the first Negro fighter group.
