On The Success Of UFC 293:
“This card absolutely met my expectations. Obviously, I expected a completely different, you know, main event, whether whether Izzy won or Strickland won. Nobody saw that coming, that Izzy would come in flat and slow and whatever’s going on with him. I don’t think anybody expected to see that. But no, the card lived up to my expectations.”
On The Co-Main Event Between Alexander Volkov And Tai Tuivasa:
“To be honest with you, when you talk about exceeding expectations, that fight did. I mean, when you look at the monster (Tuivasa) was fighting, the reach advantage, the power (Volkov) has, you know, the size difference, everything, Tai fought a hell of a fight tonight.”
On The Potential Of Alex Pereira Returning To Middleweight
“I don’t think so. I think he’ll stay at light heavyweight. You know, it’ll be I don’t know, but I don’t think so. I don’t I don’t see him cutting back down again. It’s a lot of weight to cut. The guy’s a monster.”
