“Dude, I could not believe, I was on the weight, 136 pounds, in the back, dying like everyone else, and Paddy was sitting there ripping his vape, blowing clouds.

“I'm sure khabib gets a lot of satisfaction from his pupils' [success]. But... He could've won [the belt] At 170. That's what I'm most scared of not reaching my full potential... I wonder if Khabib was like, 'God, I had more in the tank.' because you can coach forever. But you can't fight forever”

“If Tom Aspinall goes out there and wins, what happens to his career after that? That's the Jon Jones potential fight at the White House. There is so much that Tom missed out on because of the super unfortunate, sad [outcome], and it would've made the heavyweight division a lot more fun... The crowd was insanely loud. I guess it [Aspinall vs. Gane] was a big fight. Would you watch it again? Do you make that fight again? Jon doesn't want to fight Tom, Alex doesn't want to fight Tom”
