You'll never find a better sparring partner than adversity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Just because you might have a sparring match on the air doesn't mean there's any personal animosity.
I don't enjoy sparring with the audience. It devastates me.
I don't want to be knocked out. But the contact and the focus and the energy I get from sparring gives me energy to make movies, energy to be a dad, energy to be a friend, and, you know, makes me feel, probably, a lot younger and behave a lot younger than I am.
Training for a fight is never easy, regardless of the opponent.
The best fights don't occur between strangers. They occur between friends who trust each other.
In boxing, it's one fight, so it's easier to build up rivalries, but everyone's got huge respect for each other.
I'm a martial artist, and I don't train because I have a fight; I train because it's my lifestyle, and I'll train every day if I'm not hurt.
Every fight is a different experience.
When you fight on set, you try to not hurt anybody.
I'm never going to get in a fight in public again.
