"I want to perform like I think I can and like I know I can. It was very disappointing to me that my only two decisions were in the UFC that I have ever been to and I really believe that I can fight like I did with Miguel and let that be how the fight ends with anyone on the world on the right day. I really think that's me. That's what I can do better than anyone else. There is no one in my weight class. I believe, that can punch as hard as I can and not get punches as much. I feel like what I do, no one can do it exactly like me. I'm unique and what I do is unique. But, I have a long way to go to be the best that I can be. My outlook on fighting and my goals in fighting are a lot different than other people I have met. What makes me a dangerous fighter is when I am happy and I am inspired. What inspires me to fight good isn't exactly having the belt. That actually isn't my goal. My goal is a very big one. I want to be happy, that's the goal right now. I want to stay in this company and make a living. If I get a few losses then that's ok, I think I can beat these guys, but, it's not the end of the world, I am 21 years old. I don't need to be champion."
After putting on perhaps his best performance to date at UFC 145: "Jones vs. Evans"
