On Anderson Silva calling out Fedor Emelianenko in a recent interview:

He said he wants to fight Fedor? Well I’ll help ease him into that heavier weight class if that’s where he wants go. Like I said earlier, let’s go ahead and make this fight at 215. That would suite me just fine.

As far as Fedor goes, fighting in the UFC is a contractual thing. If you’re going to fight for the UFC, well you’re going to fight for the UFC. They are the best show in town so if Fedor wants to come on over.

His thoughts on the Lyoto Machida-Rashad Evans title fight:
It could start out real slow since they both have a tendency to counter fight. So it could end up being a boring fight to some or it could end up being a very exciting fight. At this level, with the competition, you make one mistake, you get clipped, and your night’s over. It’s unfortunate but it is what it is.

What he would have done differently in his fight with Rashad Evans:
Obviously the body kick was not a good idea (laughing). With the body kick, I didn’t get my feet back down and so I didn’t get a punch in. And not getting punched in the face when you’re off balance and looking up with your head wobbling around.

And not get hit a bunch on the ground either. Also, you can’t rest. With the round almost over, I thought I might chill for a second. I just can’t chill with my opponent punching me in the face. It was what it was though. Obviously I can beat Rashad, so I look forward to a rematch with him; with Jackson too.

On Rampage being upset with him and wanting a rematch:
I have never seen a guy so mad over having a bad night. It’s not like I had the best night either. I am not sure if he feels the need to be mad at me over that but its whatever. Yeah, I would fight that guy again.
