Matt Serra: 'Weidman Will Break Belfort Before The Final Bell'
BJPENN.COM News - February 27, 2014
“The second Chris walked through my doors, I’ve never seen a wrestler transition to jiu-jitsu so smoothly. Longo got him in some sparring and he was just a natural and a freak and a good one. Me and Ray talked about it often and early on with his training. We knew this kid had the potential and very early on we predicted he’d be the champion, no matter who had the belt.” “The middleweight division is murders’ row. There are a lot of challenges. Vitor is very dangerous in the beginning of the fight. I believe Chris will break him. In a five-round fight, Chris has the advantage and I don’t think this fight will go the distance.”

Nick Diaz: "I’m a better stand-up fighter than Anderson Silva."
BJPENN.COM News - February 26, 2014
“A lot of the fan base can conceive why I’d be a good fight for either guy (Lawler or Hendricks). Either one of these fights would be a good fight for me. I’m the No. 1 draw in this weight division, that’s just the way it is. I win by submissions, knockouts. There’s guys ranked above me, but no one’s interested in seeing them fight. They want to see me fight. You want to make a good fight, this’ll be a good fight. The guys [Hendricks has] beat haven’t been stand-up guys. He’s a wrestler who punches hard. I’m not sure what the UFC’s agenda is when it comes to me. It’s their show, their press. They can change to whatever they want to do at any point. They own this thing. They can do whatever they want. If they don’t want this right now, they don’t have to do it. It’s more about the fans wanting this.”
