“I respect my competition.” — Rose Namajunas

I love to learn, and that's the really cool thing about martial arts - you're always learning new things.

My dream is to be a farmer myself, but also to provide opportunities to others who don't have the land or the resources, in order to grow food themselves and teach them how to do it.

The learning curve, and the things that you have to adapt to on a daily basis in the UFC, is pretty crazy. It's a huge burden for anybody to have: not just the fighting itself but learning how to deal with the other responsibilities.

It's pretty cool to be called a champion.
