“If eventually I fully commit to only MMA, of course I want to be in the UFC because that’s the highest league out there. But for now WSOF is treating me very well… [WSOF is] putting on great shows, great fight cards, they’re doing good numbers now. They’re getting bigger and better every show so I’m satisfied with them, and they treat me very well. It’s a big family and Ray Sefo and Ali [Abdel-Aziz] treat everyone well… If I commit to MMA? Yes, I want to be in the UFC.”

“I think that people who have negative comments [about Bruce Lee’s inclusion in EA Sports UFC] are misguided for the most part,” Shannon Lee told GameSpot this week. “Some people don’t realize that my father was more than just an actor, that he was truly a real martial artist. In a lot of ways more so than a lot of the fighters today because he lived and breathed martial arts. He often said everything he learned in his life he learned from the practice of martial arts. So I think there’s some misunderstanding in that regard. “I think some of the purists out there [will say] ‘Oh, Bruce Lee never would have competed in real life…’ And my answer to that is this isn’t real life; this is fun, Bruce Lee liked to have fun. This is an opportunity to live out a fighting fantasy,” she added. “And I think we should all be grateful that the technology exists to have some fun in this way. And there are just some people who are haters [laughs]. And there’s not a whole lot I can do for those people than just to tell them that they might enjoy their lives a lot more if they stopped worrying about everybody else so much.”

“I think she almost got… No, she got dropped, like, five times in her last fight, by some chick that I never heard of before. By the way, that chick was a G. That was pretty cool. But yeah, I’m the one with the belt and I’m not going anywhere and she was the one that asked to be released from the UFC, like 24 hours after they announced out of competition drug testing. So, I don’t know who’s running from who in this scenario, but she knows where I’m at. So, I’m not going anywhere.”
