"There are two sides to this story. You take a guy like Asakura, who came into the UFC your first time. We talk about the jitters and all the things that happened, your first time fighting in a cage, etc., etc. - and he came in guns-ablazing, flying knee right away. Then, Pantoja, how he put the pressure back on him - who in this room didn't want to see three more rounds of that? It would've been amazing. It was a great fight and Pantoja went out and dominated. ... He's awesome. He looked incredible tonight."
"We did it tonight. He [Asakura] had a good performance. I would love to do it. Having these up-and-coming Japanese fighters, we were just talking in my room. He's saying no."
