89 Quotes by Derrick Lewis

I don't care if I am ever remembered in this sport for anything.

I believe I get the belt then I'll get the money. I'm not trying to be the best fighter in the world. It's all about the cheddar.

I've been in deep waters a bunch of times in my fights.

I look at all my opponents, and they could be something else. They could go out and get a normal, regular job. I look at myself and I can't do that. I have a strike on my back. I can't have a normal job. So, I've got to fight for everything I've got.

I have a lot of anger built up in me from my childhood. My wife and kids are the only ones who give me peace in this world.

Since I was probably eight years old, just about everyday, all the way until I was 14 or 15 years old, just about everyday my mom and my stepdad would roll around in the living room fighting.

At first, whenever I first got into the UFC, I was like, 'oh my God, I'm in the UFC.' When you come from where I came from, being in the UFC basically meant I was on top of the world.

I speak my mind too much, and the UFC probably don't really like that. But I really don't care.

I just like being in fun fights.
