mma games want
I love what I do... When I'm in there I don't want to be nowhere else in the world... I love this game more than anything.
fighting games care
Listen, I am in the fighting game, I don't care about anything else.
art games mma
There's people that focus on the game and forget about the art. There's that specific special individual that can do both.
games uncomfortable-situations losing
{Losing can be a great motivator] but not if it drains your confidence. One of the reasons I got into this game was because I wanted to learn how to get myself comfortable in uncomfortable situations.
fighting boys games
One of the reasons I got into this game was because I wanted to learn how to get myself comfortable in uncomfortable situations. I grew up in a tough area of Dublin, and fighting was just part of your life. Boys fight, and I won some, but I lost a lot too, and I didn't like that, I didn't like that feeling of not knowing whether I was in danger, in trouble.
sports golf games
Golf isn't a sport, it's a game. I'm not saying it's not a difficult game, with lots of mental stuff. But it's not a sport like mine. Where is the combat, the intensity of what we do?
stupid fighting games
I will cross that bridge when it comes. I am not stupid. I am a very bright guy. I know that in the fighting game, you get people who get brain damage and do themselves long-term harm. I am into it in a big way, and I am good at it, and I am going to get very, very rich and then I will get out and we will see what comes after that.
mma games worry
I don't worry about my opponent or their game, I worry about my game.
approach arts change martial people
I'm going to change the way martial arts is viewed. I'm going to change the game. I'm going to change the way people approach fighting.
We come bulletproof in Ireland. We're reared tough, and we fight.
creates excitement negative time
I don't feel pressure in a negative way. I like pressure. I feel excitement and calm at the same time. No pressure, no diamonds. I want pressure: pressure creates drama, creates emotion.
beating crap good job loads paid
I have the greatest job in the world. I get paid loads of cash for beating the crap out of people. And I'm very good at it.
I've always felt like there was a lot of hype around me even when there wasn't. I felt like everyone was talking about me even when no one was talking about me.
When I say something's going to happen, it's going to happen.
