I am a student first, teacher second.

Do I have fat cells on my body? Everybody has fat cells. Do I have more than most other athletes? Probably.

There are athletes out there trying to get every advantage they can, including things like muscle and low-fat percentages. I feel if I'm the better fighter, I'm the better fighter.

If you paid me $2 million, I'm sure I could lose my belly. But I don't get paid to look a certain way. I get paid to win fights. That's what I concentrate on.

I always thought the best part about sports was the bigger, faster kids who were supposed to be more athletic than me - I always beat.

MMA is all about putting on a show and entertaining the fans, and that's the one thing I've known from the get-go.
