Overeem "Hurting" Sparring Partners Ahead Of Struve Bout
BJPENN.COM News - December 11, 2014
“I don’t have the back-to-the-wall feeling. As an athlete you can lose; you shouldn’t only lose, but I’m not only gonna lose. Why I can I say that is because I know what I’m doing with my sparring partners: I’m seriously pressuring all of them, hurting all of them. I know that the body is there, the mindset is there — I’m putting the effort in. I don’t really feel like my back is to the wall. But what I do really feel is that you do have to perform. You do have to get out there and do it.”
BREAKING HIS SILENCE - ''I do not agree with Joe Rogan''

Dillashaw: 'I know the weaknesses in Dominick Cruz's game'
BJPENN.COM News - December 11, 2014
“Of course that I absorbed a little of what he does and transformed this in my own way of doing. You can’t copy exactly what he does, you have to develop your own style. But, yes, I studied him a lot and I needed to be him while training with Urijah. I also know the holes and the weaknesses of Cruz’s game because I was trying to instruct Urijah. Then I brought that strategy for my bout. Against Renan Barao, I moved my feet a lot and that’s what Cruz does. But I think that I was a little more technical and dangerous than him. I think that I’m as elusive as him, but better.” “That’s the fight I want, everybody wants to watch. He was away for a while because of an injury, he hasn’t lost, so I want to fight against him because he was the champion. I feel that this is the biggest fight that I can have and this is my goal, to beat him. When I began in this sport, he was the champion already. I don’t think that he changed, I hope not, because he was the champion. He looked more aggressive against Takeya Mizugaki but I think that he just did that because of his opponent. I think that against me it’s going to be completely different.”

CM Punk: "Pro Wrestling's More Risky"
BJPENN.COM News - December 11, 2014
“...I’ve been getting beat up for most of my adult life. Pro wrestling is a lot different than MMA. Most recently, I had a conversation with King Mo, and he’s been training to be a pro wrestler, and he was like, “Pro wrestling is harder.” Now, that doesn’t make my decision to do MMA like, “Oh, this is easy,” because I know it’s not. I just know I’ve put in work in pro wrestling, and the work ethic you learn from doing that will translate for me. It will put me in a good position.
