careers certain chase fighters hear work
I don't fight in chase of an individual. I hear this sometimes where fighters work their whole careers to reach a matchup with a certain individual. I do not think in that way.
good work
It's good to make your brain work more than your body.
hard-work fighting mma
I work hard and fight easy.
I knew I'd be in the UFC since I started my career.
ups
There's many ups and downs in the fight game.
handle people truth
The thing about the truth is, not a lot of people can handle it.
life martial mixed
The mixed martial arts way of life will give you focus.
moved onto people
People say that I'm a boxer. I actually started with kick boxing, and then I moved onto boxing, and then I moved onto grappling.
ali muhammad
Muhammad Ali is a legend, a hero of mine.
home life
I train and I go home, and when I'm home, I think about training. That's my life every day, and that's it.

Cage Warriors is a brilliant organisation. They're doing great things for European MMA, and they're giving the platform for guys like me who came through. They're vital. I'm forever grateful for the opportunities I got.

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.
