“I felt so good winning this fight since this is in Shenzhen – this is China. It’s UFC’s third time here. Few people knew about the sport of MMA when I started practicing it. People didn’t know that there were Chinese fighters in MMA. But from now on, the world sees us. We are powerful!”
“Listen to the cheering (for Weili Zhang’s title win) – we just got our championship. It is historical. We are going to show the world China power, letting the world know that Chinese fighters are good at the sport.”
“You all witnessed my performance tonight, so I would expect to fight against a top-10 (opponent).”
