Mike Swick

"I would love to see Rickson Gracie vs Sakuraba. I mean, really? How can we go one without that settled. Saku beat all the Gracies and Rickson was king at that time." - Swick on his dream fight.
"I call that the Swickotine."
"I’d like to see him fight Cain my teammate you know or Shane Carwin or some of these other guys because I don’t think he’s technically a top fighter. I mean we’re not WWE. You know, we’re a different organization." - Mike Swick talking about Brock Lesnar after the champion's win at UFC 100.
"You are not the father." - Mike Swick making fun of Maury Povich.
"He smiles a lot." - Mike Swick on Ben Saunders, imitating the wide grin perfectly.
"Jon Fitch is my training partner and he's the only guy to ever beat Paulo Thiago. It's a good insight to prepare for this fight." - Mike Swick on his upcoming fight with Paulo Thiago.
"Winning this fight (at UFC 109) is super important; I don't like losing. I hate losing that's why it still hurts so bad after my last fight, but I have an opportunity now to get back on the winning track. If I were to win this fight and get a choice between a title shot or Dan Hardy, I would choose Dan Hardy. I want that rematch, and I want to go out there and have a better performance and perform to my ability. That's kind of what my goal is so it all leads with this fight. I have to go out there and do what I have to do to get this win and then more opportunities will come. I want to be the first guy to stop him. I really want to be the first guy to finish Thiago. I think that would prove something." - Swick again on the Thiago fight and about wanting a rematch with Hardy afterwards instead of a possible title shot.
"'Hardy beat me and it was for a title shot. Respect to him and I wish him well. I had my opportunity and blew it." - Swick on Twitter after the Hardy fight.
"My favorite party food is a layered dip consisting of refried beans, guacamole, and cheese. I eat it with Wheat Thins. When I have a fight coming up, I have to take out the cheese. For this fight, I will actually be in the cage and this dip won't be accessible. Everyone please eat this tasty dish for me while I entertain you with punches in bunches!" - Mike when asked what his favorite party food was.
