Quotes from Rory MacDonald

I still and will always have a passion for martial arts and do not believe, as a Christian, that it's wrong for myself to compete in a professional sport that is violent.

MMA is my true talent and what I excel at the most.

I try to live in the moment and I learn from my losses.

Entrance music doesn't make a difference.

I've been doing jiu-jitsu since I was 14 years old. It actually was the martial art that was really stapled in my mind that said, this is what I want to do... I want to do martial arts for the rest of my life.

I'm a simple martial arts guy.

I enjoy martial arts. I love to compete, I love to be at the top. I mean that's why I started in this... I want to let people known what the Lord blessed me with. He changed my circumstances and brought it to an amazing place. And continues to do so.

I'm nervous... but I'm not going to fear what I'm about to do, I'm going to take it head on and I'm going to conquer it.
