”I found out right before everyone else found out”
”I think [UFC Tonight co-host and light heavyweight champ Daniel] Cormier pressured Dana pretty hard make the announcement (laughs). So, that was helpful.”
”I’ve been pretty positive throughout the whole process of waiting to find out if I’d get the fight, in feeling that I’d get it. So, I’ve stayed in shape. I was just in Phoenix training my butt off, actually. I’ve been fired up since the Machida fight. I’ve had my fun but I never got too out of shape. I’m motivated to get after it.”
Rockhold menar att Weidman har en mentalitet som får mästaren att tro att han är oövervinnlig och det är samma mentalitet som Rockhold har.
”There’s going to be a lot of promotion for this fight. I think weidman is pretty confident in himself and what he brings to the table. We’ve both got Alpha Male complexes. He thinks that he’s invincible and I think I’m invincible. We’re going to see who is right and who is wrong.”
Rockhold tror att matchen kommer att ske sent det här året och att slåss i New York i december vore perfekt enligt Rockhold.
”I’m eagerly waiting for a date. I could only imagine that it would be later this year. I doubt it would be in Septemember just because from a promotional stand point, there isn’t a lot of time, but maybe not. Who knows? I know the UFC is still hopeful for New York [in December]. That would be awesome.”
