“I have no problem with Masvidal lying, trying to get headlines. As a matter of fact, I support it... If you’re lying to get headlines, you’re not a liar, you’re a performer, and you’re entertaining, but you have to keep track of your story”

“I'll go with Georges St—Pierre if you're bringing in former as well. I think that was the match. There was talk that they were going to pay $5M for a grappling match between those two guys.

“[Jon Jones] doesn't understand, fighters want to fight. Jon is the only fighter that doesn't want to fight. Jon is the only fighter that's ok taking 3 years off to drink some protein shakes... Now he's sitting out by choice… If Jon thinks he's gonna find a dance partner in [Alex] Pereira and one of the contingencies is that Pereira sits and does nothing for a year... It's not going to solve the problem, and it's also not going to solve Dana's problem with Jon and the White House”

“Let me give you the hot take of the day. If I'm in Jon Jones's shoes and I hear this and I feel this buzz, there's this huge fight and it has all of a sudden got my interest, but there's no title on the line. I can fix that real fast. I can say, 'I can fight you and I'll even find a world title, because it's gonna be yours. I'll see you at 205 pounds.' If Jon Jones does that, my partner, we're having a very different conversation”
