I think you should try... not to try to be better than everyone around you, but try to be better than yourself everyday.
A champion is defined by the adversity he overcomes
I am not the best, but I am capable of achieving the impossible.
I don't think I'm better than anyone; I just like to prove to myself that things I imagine can be done.

If Somebody disrespects me they will pay for it. I promise
I am Not The Best, But I Have The Potential To Be Something Great.
I believe I can do things people think are impossible.
If you train 100% the result will be 100%.
Behind every champion is a team that prepared him to become that champion.
One can only savor the victory if he has felt the bitter defeat.
Things will happen. But you have to believe that nothing is impossible.
Racism, prejudice and discrimination are an inexplicable collective stupidity
I practice the martial arts. I don't practice MMA. MMA is my job, MMA is a new sport. Martial arts is the knowledge from the ages.
I think old age is in each one's head; so if you're happy doing what you love, you're going to be young.

I've already done everything there is to do. Now it's just a matter of doing what I love to do.
When you use the steroids, you use them for a long time. When you use the steroids for a long time, you have a problem. It’s a drug and it’s not good for the sport.
I'm just dying to return to the Octagon and do the thing I most love in my life. That's what I want right now.

When I started out, Jiu-Jitsu was really an elite thing in Brazil, and there was some prejudice towards poorer kids, so I had to learn things on my own. Some of my neighbours started doing Jiu-Jitsu, so I started watching it, and then started rolling with them. It wasn’t organized training, but it was better than nothing.
I started in this sport at 12 years of age and the goals I set was to be among the best and be the world champion.
I already have a story that's been seen in Glory and I have had many highs and lows, victories and defeats. That brought me experience and it will help me a lot to gain the desired world title.
