“He's had one win since 2021... With all due respect, he can sit the f**k back at the end of the line, wait, fight another fight, get more relevant, and fight someone up the rankings - but there is no way on God's green Earth that he is fighting for a world title next. NOT WHEN I'M HERE - via The Ariel Helwani Show blasting the notion of Kamaru Usman being awarded the next welterweight title shot.”

“You're meant to be a champion of this sport, you're a child. You're taking away from your friend's win over here.

“Islam Makhachev is the protege of Khabib. I'm the protege of Conor. This is the new wave of Dagestan. A technical on the feet, a more technical grappler than Khabib. I'm a longer, faster, more versatile version of Conor. It's the perfect fight to make... The ball is in his court. Whenever he is ready, whenever he wants.

I'm taking that throne from you, and I'm ending that continuous streak. You're done, there is nobody getting in the way of me and my future...

“I'm very happy that Carlos Prates gave me an early Christmas present, and maybe an early birthday present. Knocking out Leon, that video, that slo-mo of Leon's head hitting the canvas was very satisfying. I don't like Leon. I don't like his team.They spread false rumors about me because of Leon's insecurities and lack of mental strength in the gym, and bad things come to bad people, people who have bad energy and bring that out to the world. Carlos Prates put him out, and I'm very, very proud of my son for doing that. - via TNT Sports, expressing satisfaction over Leon Edwards' knockout loss to Carlos Prates”

They should be ashamed for the preparation, in my opinion.I thought it was clean. He did what he needed to do against someone who I thought was gonna cause him problems...

I think he was just having fun. - via UFC on TNT Sports, criticizing Jack Della Maddalena's preparation while praising Islam Makhachev's dominance”

“I think he's going to absolutely starch Leon. I've been saying this for a long time. [Edwards] should be retired, and we might see that. I'm shocked he took the fight in the first place. He's been shouting and screaming about wanting to fight a striker for so long, and now he's got his opportunity, and I think he's going to absolutely punch round - Ian Machado Garry's Prediction for Edwards vs. Prates via Ariel Helwani YT Channel”

“I want it to be publicly announced that it was a number one contender fight. If you're, look, me and Sean Brady, that was the fight to make and the winner that goes to the world title. I don't disagree with you at all. I think that makes a lot of sense. However... I wanted no one to be able to jump the ladder because of any excuse. So from my point of view, I thought after a fight with Belal first, because as I said, Belal has knocked out number two in Sean Brady and he has smashed number three in Leon Edwards. So when you, when you smoke Belal, it's obvious what comes next.-via Ariel Helwani YT Channel”

“Now, if I go out there and do that to Sean Brady, someone can have that argument, 'oh, you haven't beat this guy.' And I didn't want any of that. So for me, it actually works out better, I'm not gonna lie...When you knock out a former champion, and he's number one in the world right now, and you smash him in less rounds than JDM could... I know I'm getting a world title fight-via Ariel Helwani YT Channel”

“I have no want, no interest ever for him to ever earn any money off me doing all the hard work of being the more interesting fighter... I'm gonna have a Brazilian flag on my shoulders come November 15th, cheering Carlos Prates on, watching him spark Leon Edwards unconscious.”
