I know I'm always rooting for the underdog in a fight, and I love to be constantly surprised.

I find that whoever you are as a person is how you're gonna fight, and every basic instinct kind of comes out at that moment.

I like fighting because it's honest.

When you fight someone, you share the experience with that one person, and you're never going to have that experience with someone else-even in another fight.

People want to put you in the box, and you just have to fight past their preconceived notions.

Fighting is very physical and extreme and you're very vulnerable. It's a very mental type of thing.

My first fight. I fought a girl that was a little bit heavier, a little bit more experienced and I was petrified because I didn't know what I was getting myself into. And I did really well against her and nobody believed it was my first fight.

Of course, fighting is not going to be as graceful as movie fighting. I don't like it to be ugly and I don't like it to be one big brawl or people clobbering each other.
