I want to rematch 'Cigano' in Brazil, at the Arena do Gremio in Porto Alegre. It would be a dream come true. Fighting in my hometown, where I was born and raised.

The heavyweight division is dangerous because one punch can end everything.

I don't like people who are full of themselves.

When you train everyday with a guy like Rafael, you feel a different energy. It is like you need to show him that you are evolving. Some coaches impose respect. Cordeiro earns your respect and admiration.

Cris Cyborg is the best fighter in the world.

It happened with me in the past that I was not well trained for a reason, like an injury, and I started talking a lot to fool myself, to show everyone that I'm fine, but I was not.

Confidence comes with training. When you train well, you get confident.

If the champion can't fight because of an injury, it's not my fault. It happens in this sport. It's normal.

Mark Hunt knew I was going to try to take him down, and I was shooting for ankle picks to avoid his uppercuts. I tried it once and twice, and he thought I would try one more time, so I threw the knee. He was expecting the takedown and was ready to throw the uppercut, when he realized I threw the knee it was too late for him to cover up.

Nobody believed when I knocked down Mark Hunt.
