I want to be healthy when I quit, and I want to quit while I’m on my top. A lot of fighters continue because probably they need the money. My goal was invest, get out of the game healthy and secure. I feel like that’s a real champion. Not someone who gave it all in the ring, and then at the end of his life, they don’t have anything. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote
Derek Brunson’s stand up is horrible, I’m sorry. The guy is a good fighter but his stand up is just terrible. He’s an amateur fighter stand up wise. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote

I’ve been working on wrestling aside from MMA. That is something that I wasn’t doing in the past so I’m getting more confident in my wrestling. I learned that I didn’t know a lot about takedowns, it’s a really big gap and I’m catching up and learning a lot. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote
I was born in Iran, my parents are Armenian. We fled from Iran to the Netherlands when I was eight years old. We had a lot of family and friends in Iran, so it was hard to leave, especially for my parents. But we managed to settle well in the Netherlands, after a year in refugee camps. But I understood it was a process. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote
I made my money with good investments, I’m going to make maybe $1 million a year just with my real estate. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote
I see some fighters lose very badly, but still they get more praise or they’re not overrated. They’re just good fighters in a lot of people’s eyes. But I feel like one loss with King Mo, it made me a very bad fighter somehow. Gegard Mousasi Read Quote
