Ideally, I would prefer to stay in my weight class at lightweight. But if that doesn't happen, if they offer me a title fight at featherweight, then why not? Otherwise, there's no point of fighting at featherweight against just anyone; I'd rather fight in my own division.

Opposing him that night: Junior dos Santos, the Brazilian knockout machine who had carved his own path of destruction through the division with wins over Fabricio Werdum, Frank Mir, Mark Hunt, and others.
