Chael Sonnen:
Key Quote:
“He’s never been in there with a gangster before, he’s been in there with little boys who were scared of him.”
“I’m the best MMA wrestler in the world. I could take Jon Jones any time I wanted to. I’m a two-time national champion, I got a silver medal in the world championships. That says I can take Jon Jones down.
“He’s never had an experience like this before. There’s a reason he said no the first time.”

Alan Belcher:
Key Quotes:
“I have no doubt in my mind that Bisping could not knock me out with his best punch if I let him. There’s no way I’m going to get hurt in this fight and that I’m going to go down.”
“I just want to shut him up and move ahead, and if I can step on Michael Bisping on my way to the title…man, it’s just a better day for me.”
