- I'm already negotiating for my next fight, but it's difficult. A lot of people haven't accepted it (fighting with me), it's been a more than complicated negotiation. I watch the fights and when there's someone from my division fighting, I'm dying to be called out, but then nobody challenges me. Let's see when this next fight will be.
- I am negotiating this fight, we're seeing a fight for April. We're just now closing the opponent, to see who it will be. It could be (Khamzat) Chimaev, who was one of the few guys who accepted and there we are in a negotiation. We will see. It could be against him this next fight.
- For me to have another opportunity for the belt, I think I need expressive victories. I think one or two. I think the next challenger for the belt will be Leon Edwards, so I think a win over Chimaev and Colby (Covington) puts me back there for the belt, but it's really hard to control that. It depends a lot on the moment, how you won, the response from the fans. It depends on a lot, so it's hard to talk.
