Look at what George Foreman did to Michael Moorer. No matter his age, he hits so hard that he's always in a fight.
Thiago Santos is a guy who can take your belt from you with one punch.
Ali could only fight a couple of ways. I can fight five or six different ways.
I've got a tidy chin and a decent punch. And, for people who think they can fight and are champions, I'll make it extremely hard.
I'd like to think I'm a hybrid to where, if you had to pick, where would you say I'm weak? I can outwrestle guys; I can outgrapple guys. I can put your lights out, and I have a gas tank for days. I can do it all.
Anderson Silva is a tough guy, man. He's dangerous. He's got heavy hands, and he's not afraid to throw them. He's a dangerous opponent for anyone.
Badou Jack is a great fighter, but there is a lot that he does that I do better. I have enough power to take him out.
Muhammad could take a very good punch. He was slick, he could move, he could hit, make you miss, good hand speed and combinations and one of the greatest fighters of all time in my opinion.
Everyone's a world class ground fighter until they get a punch to the face.
I really believe that I'm a better fighter than Gabriel Gonzaga.
I wasn't born to be a fighter. My hands are too small, and look at these short arms.
Look at the guys I've fought. Anderson Silva. Lyoto Machida. Vitor Belfort. All those guys are much quicker than Luke Rockhold and I did just fine.
What it really comes down to is that I believe I'm the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, and to do that, I need to beat the best.
I believe, in my prime, I could have fought with anybody alive.
I'm not the same fighter I used to be.
Anthony 'Rumble' Johnson hits hard. You gotta watch out for him. He's got hammers as fists.
When it comes to strength, I reckon pound for pound I'm one of the strongest in the whole UFC.
Cain Velasquez - he is a good puncher. He is very compact. He's strong. He's very smart. He's a good fighter. He's a warrior.
I think it's stupid to say a guy who has trained in jiu-jitsu for as long as I have is just a stand-up fighter. I have trained with some of the best black belts in the world. I am comfortable on the ground. I can fight wherever the fight goes and not be concerned.
I just don't see where Chris Weidman is going to threaten me. He's a tough guy, but I'm better on my feet, better on the ground. He's not going to threaten me with his wrestling.
Kevin Johnson is the kind of guy that gives guys trouble. He gives a lot of guys trouble. He gave Vitali Klitschko trouble.
I'm fast for a cruiserweight.
Michael had to pound me a couple of times to convince me not to go stage a rescue." Shane shrugged. "He hits like a girl, for a vampire.
I really feel that if it wasn't for the accident, I'd still be fighting. I would have handled some of these fighters. I would have made sure that the doctors would have declared me physically sound; and after that, I would have trained.
I know since my first fight in the UFC I can beat Ronda Rousey, but of course I have to take my time and put everything together.
