I expect the best Anderson Silva. I don't think he'll toy with me like he toyed with other guys, I can explode in and touch his chin, and all it takes is one shot.
I've got good jiu-jitsu skills, good wrestling, good ground and pound, good power on my feet, good strikes.
I remember coming across some DVDs of the UFC and so I started watching that and became a fan of it. It was a little boring because of all the grabbing and holding and I fast-forwarded through a lot of it, but I still watched because I like martial arts.
Henri Hooft is a master on the feet when it comes to striking.
A lot of people might sit back and watch Dominick Cruz doing his footwork, and say, 'Oh, Dominick Cruz just dancing around, and he runs away.' It's a totally different atmosphere until you get in there, and you actually experience it.
I always watch Anderson Silva and I always watch his fighting style.
I can do back fists, spinning kicks. I have more options, and I can show the better striking.
I have the best style to defeat the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world - Demetrious Johnson.
Curtis Blaydes' ground and pound is really scary. Like, really, really scary.
My style of fighting is to go down and trying to finish the guy and trying to end fights, not laying up because I'm winning the fight, just keep going after it.
My goal is to go out there and dominate. We all know if I'm in a position and I see my opponent hurt by landing good striking, I'm going to try to get him out of there. If I'm in the top position or in the position to finish by submission, I'm going to look for that. I don't feel the need to prove the haters wrong.
I think Mixed Martial Arts is going to be a huge thing coming up in pro wrestling, and I like to think of myself as one of the first guys to try and implement that into my style.
Miesha has holes in her game standing and on the ground.
Carlos Condit does the best job of being the counterstriking guy that is very elusive.
People want to see real skill level, real Jiu Jitsu, real boxing, put together and mixed up. They want to see mixed martial arts. They don't want to see five minutes of holding. I think there should be points deducted when you do that.
How I fight is what got me into the UFC in the first place.
Luke Rockhold's not going to take me down. Chris Weidman's not going to take me down. Their wrestling is great, but they have to set it up with strikes.
