Video: UFC 148 – Main Card Match-Ups

|

“We’re athletes, we need to pay the price.” Cung Le, Patrick Cote, Demian Maia and Dong Hyun Kim discuss their main card bouts at UFC® 148.

Patrick Cote

“Cung is a very tricky guy, very agile with his legs. He’s doing some crazy tricks but I’ve brought some good south paw kickers in my camp and they were doing exactly what Cung is doing. I don’t think he’s going to bring anything new. That’s his style. He likes to go very flashy and all, spinning back fists and spinning back kicks, but we’re prepared for that and I can’t wait to fight.”

Cung Le

“I’m very honored to be part of this UFC card, 148. I’m here to fight. I’ve been training hard and I feel great. All the fans can expect lightning followed by thunder. I have no quit.”

Demian Maia

“I feel great. I feel strong in this weight division. Of course there’s a little bit more starving but it’s okay, we are athletes, we need to pay the price. I think we are going to end up grappling in this fight because he is basically a grappler but he’s a good stand up fighter also. He can kick well, he punches well. He lost just one fight and I want to make him lose the second one.”

Dong Hyun Kim

“I haven’t really thought about where the fight will put me in the division but it will definitely prove that my ground game is one at the top levels and I’m only thinking about this fight and not past this point yet. I’d love to compete with him on the ground but a lot of fans like the exciting fight so I’m going to try and show them something exciting.”
