The biggest shock was the first fight. I didn't know what to expect. I fought Fujita. At that time, he was one of the most dangerous PRIDE fighters. He was a complete beast and with 130 kilograms of pure muscle.

I've made some investments during my career that I'm happy with, so my life, talking financially, is definitely OK.
-
I've heard that I could be facing Randy Couture. That would a great.

People ask me if I'm going to open a school. Why not? I think I should. Maybe not a typical school where anyone can come but with young fighters definitely one day. I don't have the nerves for amateurs.

I'd most prefer to be a free agent and fight up to six times a year, but that is unlikely.

I was training in an old garage - just a roof. And when its snowed, it would cover the floor, so I would have to clear this first. I didn't have a punch bag. There was no place to buy it, so I managed to get a speed ball, but it didn't have the swivel mechanism, so I just nailed it to the ceiling and started kicking.

The only 'special supplements' I'm using is two hard and bloody trainings per day, five days a week.

I really think me and my family live humbly. I've secured my life, and I won't have to open the newspaper and be looking for work.

I never liked to say any trash talk about anyone, and I never go low on that level.

I'm not angry or anything at Sonnen, but I will say one thing - I hope nobody gets offended; I don't wanna sound disgusting, and I am certainly not fan of any anthropologic theories - but you can see on that guy's face that he is limited and stupid, and his IQ is not higher than the size of the shoes he's wearing.

Saying that fights in Japan were fixed and that me, along with other guys like Silva, Minotauro, etc., did not win those fights legitimately is an ultimate and absurd nonsense.

In 1993, I joined the Croatian army. I was a radio telegraphist.

I broke people's bones, tore muscles, ribs, faces, inflicted some serious and heavy damages to my opponents, etc... I got hurt myself, too, from serious attacks.

Low kicks, you need to throw at least 20 to finish the guy, and he has 20 chances to block you, and you can break your leg.
