“In the UFC, there are guys who train more and others who train less. I dedicate myself 100% in training, so the result is 100%”

“In the arm-and-neck choke, once I get my elbow around—whether I’m in the mount, half-guard or sometimes in side-control—I’m really close to finishing. I try really focusing on not losing that elbow during the whole process. I use that entire part of my body to keep the pressure on. The most important thing, though, is to readjust the shoulder against the opponent’s neck, right after passing his arm over to the other side of his head”
