"I like to train and I like to fight.”
The Makdessi KO: “I came out of that spin, and as I'm turning to face John again, I see him fall. Everybody went crazy and I was like, 'Alright...cool.' *laughs* It was surreal to turn around and see someone falling over. It was a really cool moment."
Training at Jackson/Wink: “We vibe off one another a lot and it's a very cool collaboration we have going on between a handful of us over there and Cub Swanson especially. We've been doing it for years. He's the one who kind of instilled that creativity into me and helped me become the fighter I am today."
"I like the matchup. [Teymur] is a quality kickboxer and he has an extensive background in K-1 and Muay Thai," Vannata said. "He thinks his striking is on a completely different level than anyone else in the UFC, but I think he's pretty basic and extremely one dimensional. He's a great kickboxer, but we are playing a different game over here.
"There are a lot of holes in Teymur's game that are about to be exposed. He has good power, but I have a lot of power in my hands, knees and feet and I'm ready to put this dude out."
"One side of me is all about this next fight and see what happens and go from there, but the other side of me says I'm going to sleep Teymur, then call out a top-20 guy. Then I'm going to sleep that next guy and call out a top-10 fighter. I'll do it again and call out a top-five guy, and by the end of the year I'm going to be ranked in the top five.”
