Justin Gaethje Quotes

I've fought tactical fights in a gym, but never in a fight before.

When you're talking about fighting, as it is, with no rules, well then, baby you'd better train every part of your body!

I'm a martial artist. I've boxed all my life. I work out. I studied Hwarangdo, which is a Korean style.

I'd love to do live-action superheroes. And you know, I boxed for several years. I have some martial arts experience.

My fighting style, if you will, is a combination of mimicking, cowboy films and boxing that I have done throughout my life.

In martial arts, the way that they train really does channel that killer instinct. We used to put motorcycle helmets on and go full force at each other with these sticks to train.

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.

Training's training; boxing's boxing. Everyone does the same kind of stuff: they spar, they train, they do whatever they do to prepare for fights.

I stretch for a full hour before a fight because I know I'm going to take a lot of punishment in the ring. That's my secret.

With my style, training is very rigorous. You're toe-to-toe, getting beat on six days a week for five or six weeks leading to a fight. There's no fun, no glamour.

I do jiu-jitsu my whole life, so why would I try to stand and bang with Mike Tyson? I'm going to learn boxing in six months because my opponent is good in boxing? That makes no sense.

No matter how much cardio you do - running or biking or whatever - it's never the same as being in the ring.

You can hit the bags, the pads, and you can run and do your fitness and your weights as much as you want, but if you don't spar you just don't have that true experience, that true knowledge of how to beat a man in one-on-one combat.

I'd always done martial arts I was always interested in fighting.

I am always in the gym sparring. I look at every fight kind of like a sparring match.

The fight training was very extensive, a lot of stretching, a lot of coordination of balance exercises.

I'm really good with fighting with my feet.

I love to box. I once took a kickboxing class in college and got totally hooked.

I'm really great with weapons: I did a lot of bo and staff training for 'Immortals.' I love knives. I'm a pretty good shot. But I love hand-to-hand combat.

With experience in boxing, you learn how to be a scientific boxer and how to fight easy.

I just want to do what I do best, and that's fight. I love it.

What people don't know is that I'm a blackbelt in jujitsu, which I've been for 20 years, and I've been boxing since I've been 15 years old - those are things that come natural to me.

I love boxing. There's something fierce about using your body's force that way.

For the last years now I've had my own academy where I train Brazilian Jujitsu and Tae boxing, Muay Thai everyday.

I knew boxing before I knew anything else.
