THEY SAID IT:
Lucie Pudilova : “My nickname is “Bullet” that means I will fight until I die. This is the reason I stay in the Octagon so long and win. So many women try and give me the armbar and no one can do it. I don’t know who my next fight is but I will wait to see who the UFC gives me.”

THEY SAID IT:
Alex Morono: “Burkman is a vet and I really wanted to knock him out. He’s a little slower and kept his range a little awkwardly so I knew it would be tough but I knew I had to close the distance. I got his timing down pretty quick and landed a collision punch as he was moving forward I timed it perfectly and landed, which dropped him. Once was down, I could tell he was out of it and was stunned and I wrapped it up with a guillotine, which I get about 50 a week. Diego Sanchez was my favorite fighter after he fought Clay Guida and he always fights crazy – he screams and bleeds – and he’s a hero of mine. You look up to your hero and it’s surreal to think that I can fight this veteran. It blows my mind. It would be a dream come true and an honor to fight him next.”

THEY SAID IT:
Oskar Piechota: “My game plan was to keep it standing. We practiced a lot of punching for this fight and it worked. So we are very happy. If we went to the ground, we would be prepared as well. I don’t want to say who I want to fight next. I will wait for what my manager and the UFC brings me and I will take it.”
