Not being active, your name doesn’t go out there as much, and you lose the popularity thing. Also, you’re not able to make a living. This is what we do to make a living: we go out there and fight. Not being able to fight for a year and a half and not able to bring in money, it definitely sets you back. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
This whole thing is – our window to be able to fight and make money is very short. It’s a short window to be able to take advantage of this and make as much money as we can and save it for the future. When you’re not fighting, and the money’s not coming in, you can’t do that, and that’s the part that sucks about this job. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
I know I can eat a lot. Normally, at home, I finish my steak, eat the rest of my fiancee’s steak, and think about eating the two that are still left on the grill. I just can’t stop eating. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
Seeing Mexicans in the media is rare. Seeing role models on TV is rare. So who do we look up to? We’re not seen on football fields or basketball courts. So we look up to fighters; they’re Mexican. They are out there fighting, representing their people, and winning champions. We look up to them. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
I’m still in the gym every day for training, putting in the same hard work every week. That’s the only way I know how to do it. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
I’d like to give some attention to my family, hang out with them for a little while. They definitely deserve it. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
I wasn’t thinking that I was going to go through my career undefeated. You expect to lose sometimes. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
You have to set up the right technique to get that takedown. It can’t just be any shot. You have to really set it up. Cain Velasquez Read Quote
