100 Quotes by Alexander Volkanovski

I played rugby league, I probably played for about 10 years I think, and I wrestled before then. I did about a year of wrestling, and I think I got a bit tired of the tights, so I started to play football with the mates. I used to be a front rower, the big guys up front. I used to be 97 kilograms, which is like 210 pounds, or something like that.

I train with whoever I can, all different sizes, shapes, and styles.

I fought Chad Mendes to make sure I was in the top five.

I know I can go for days. I've proved this time and time again, against grinders.

When it comes to pace, we know that I don't have a problem.

I just really like ground and pound. The way I do it, it looks like I'm just throwing bombs, but there's some technique to it too. I make sure I'm controlling the hips, palming his face to the ground, just little things like this that make sure that the ground and pound works and I'm not letting him tie me up to where I can't throw punches.

You see what I can use in my range, even with tall people, imagine what I could do to someone half my size.

Styles make fights.

When it comes to power, we know I got power, and we know I can wrestle.
