FELICE ON PAIGE, NINJA TRAINING
"When it comes to fighting. Especially when it comes to fighting in the @UFC looks mean absolutely nothing. At the end of the day you have to be prepared to back it up. I accept the challenge of whoever the @ufc puts In front of me. I don't look past any opponent. I train for each and every opponent the same. Like it's the toughest fight of my career and it very well may be . In the sport of MMA anything can happen. You just never know. I'm ready for my upcoming challenge. April 18 you will get the best Felice Herrig you have ever seen" -Felice Herrig
"Just to clarify because people seem to be misunderstanding my statement about "the 2 hot chicks" comment. I am not mad or upset at Paige for saying that, nor do I think she shouldn't market herself in anyway she feels comfortable. I obviously capitalize on things I feel comfortable doing and I 100% think she should seize those opportunities if that is what she likes/wants to do as well. I simply stated that when the cage door shuts, "looks have nothing to do with it". Furthermore if I am interviewed about our fight my looks or hers is probably not going to be a topic I bring up. Paige is a young fighter with a lot of energy and buzz which when matched up against me I think will make for one hell of an exciting fight. Im excited for this fight not because Paige is hot but because I just think its going to be an awesome fight. Im not naive to the fact that there are going to be fans that look at this fight for other reasons but I am confident that Paige and I are gonna bring a fight that will stand for more than just that." -
