"Dude I'd love to fight every week if they'd let me. It's not the UFC's fault, it's not Joel Alvarez's fault. I was supposed to fight him, he wanted to go up to 70, and I am so happy that he went up to 70,"
"Manuel Torres, absolute stud, absolute crazy good fighter. Live by the sword, die by the sword, he's probably the most dangerous dude in the first round. This is definitely going to be a test,"
"I make him fight me the way that I want to fight. Absolutely no brawling. There will be no brawling in this fight. Lots of footwork, lots of good stylistic moves. I don't want to give too much of the game plan, but I think everybody knows (how this fight is won),"
The fighter expresses eagerness to compete frequently while accepting opponent and weight-class changes. The opponent Manuel Torres is described as a fast-starting finisher who poses the greatest danger early. The planned approach emphasizes imposing a personal style, avoiding brawling, and relying on footwork, stylistic moves, discipline, and fundamentals to control pace. Both competitors are aware of each other's tendencies, making the bout a tactical test of implementation. The result will depend on which fighter can better execute their game plan under pressure rather than on chaotic aggression or early finishing attempts.
