“I think it’s important to get in there. Get back on track. Start making my way towards the title and Thiago Alves is the next obstacle in that path. But I try not to think of the bigger picture right now, I rather focus on Thiago Alves who is a very, very, tough opponent. He is a very, very good striker, obviously, that’s his bread and butter. But I think he’s a well-rounded mixed martial artist, he’s got good wrestling, really good jiu-jitsu, but mainly, he’s a striker. He has kind of a traditional muay thai sense. He’s very strong physically and it’s going to be tough, but I feel I have a good strategy and if I come to win prepared, I will walk off with a win. I think I’ll finish him later in the fight, in the fourth or fifth round.”

“Conor McGregor, he could be smart or very dumb. But I think Conor McGregor is very skilled. He can back what he says. Jose Aldo… he’s a very flamboyant fighter, he’s very dangerous, he has that aura of invincibility around him. He’s like the best pound-for-pound in the world right now, that’s what I believe. I think Conor McGregor is trying to play that game, trying to get into his head. Maybe it’s going to work, maybe it’s not. We’ll see what’s going to happen.”

“I win over Anthony Johnson six out of seven days. But, the only thing that wasn’t supposed to happen, happened. One day you are on the top, the other day you’re on the bottom. That’s how it works. Not much. I hadn’t time to show my potential. The fight didn’t last long. But I learned to have a better defense. Keep your hands up and your chin down and to be ready for anything. You can’t relax, even for a millisecond in this sport. Because that’s what happened, the fight was fast. There’s not much you can say about that fight. He hit me and he hit me good. Sometimes that’s enough. I try to face my demons. You have that doubt and lack of self confidence. You feel that you’re not good enough to be the best in the world and that’s the hardest thing about it all, something you have to go through and process. I know I have potential to be the best in the world. It’s just a damn setback when you lose like this. He’s a tough opponent who’s highly ranked. It’ll be a good fight. He likes to stand up and hit hard. We’re both strikers and we like to keep the fight on the feet. I think I have many keys to win this fight, but I have to practice everything. I see myself as a better boxer. I’m more of a technical boxer than he is. I think I’m faster than he is, I have better footwork. I’m a better MMA fighter than he is. I mix things up better than he does.” Urijah Faber Drops by BJPENN.COM’s “Stud Show Radio” to talk about a fight with McGregor, rematch with Aldo and MORE!
