I’m constantly working my wrestling and jiu-jitsu, which is going to make me more confident in the Octagon. Stephen Thompson Read Quote
Constantly moving, from side to side. Keeping your opponent guessing. If you stand still long enough, a wrestler is going to shoot for your legs. He’s going to see where your legs are at. But, if you keep him constantly guessing, they can’t get a bead on those legs. So, constant movement is probably one of the best takedown defenses you could use. Stephen Thompson Read Quote
I’ve been called all kinds of stuff, it’s part of the game. You take it personal, then you’re in trouble. It will affect you, your training. It comes with the territory. Stephen Thompson Read Quote

I understand it’s part of the sport, part of the game to have people who like you and people who don’t. Stephen Thompson Read Quote
Matt Brown did exactly what he said he was going to do. He kicked my butt. But it was a war. I would love to do it again. Matt Brown’s a good dude and a great fighter. He’s made it up to the top and man, he’s a monster. Stephen Thompson Read Quote
