In MMA, I believe that when a fighter knocks someone down, you have to finish him. It's not boxing, where you have a ten count; you have to finish him.
To be knocked out doesn't mean what it seems. A boxer does not have to get up.
I've got a powerful left hook and a lot of intensity. The intensity comes from the anger within.
I've been knocked down more than any heavyweight champion in history.
He knows I'm brutal. He's knows I can punch hard. He knows if I connect on his chin, at any one moment, 12 three minute rounds, he's going to be in serious trouble. If he's not on the floor, his legs will do a funny dance.
The moment I'm most proud of my career is when I got dropped by the headkick by Carlos Condit. I fell down and I was able to stand up.
Just knock hell out of it with your right hand.
That's the reality of boxing - it can be over in a flash.
Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!
I have a deep, deep belief that if I tell you I'm going to crack you with a clean shot to the chin inside one minute of the first round and you will be unconscious, well, then that's what will happen.
I'm going to take Barrera out in devastating style with unbelievably hard shots. He's tailor-made for me, and I will fit him with a suit to wear on the canvas.
You have to punch hard for knockouts, and to beat me, you have to knock me out.
I got knocked down, I don't know how many years ago and I haven't been off my feet since, and I responded again against the best in division without the respect of having the chin I'm supposed to have.
To make it big, a fighter needs power. Otherwise, sooner or later, he'll fall victim to opponents who force the issue and take two or three punches to land one.
The most excited you'll ever see me is after knocking a guy out.
If a person is hit hard enough, even if she stands, she falls.
If you look through my career, I put an end to a lot of guys never been knocked down, never been stopped.
That's my goal for every fight, is to hit them as hard as I can.
This is boxing, everybody fights everybody.
I think I've become one of the best finishers in boxing; if I hurt a guy, I normally take him out.
My form is improved and I'm just continuing to improve. I want to come back as a shooter. A knockdown shooter.
I've seen so many fighters getting knocked out.
My great fight was against Liddell. I lost via decision but it was one of the fights that I most enjoyed to be part of. He was tough, had heavy hands, I was able to handle him and knock him down in the second round, we gave an amazing show.
I've never seen a truly great fighter get knocked onto the ropes unconscious... knocked out cold before... and I saw Roy Jones get knocked out twice in a row.
Hurd puts on entertaining fights, I put on entertaining fights. Let's bang it out, let's rumble.
