“With the time off that I’ve had, a lot of of these guys are 35, 36; these guys are getting older. You don’t know how long they plan on continuing to compete, so I definitely need to get up there quick and make sure I get a piece of them, too, before they quit.”

“I’m not going to pick my fight at this point because I just came back; it’s been two years. I’d definitely run that fight back (with Overeem), but I also wouldn’t question Matt. He’s a little higher up in the rankings right now. Anyone of those guys that are above me in the rankings, I’ll be very happy to fight.”

In a recent interview with MMAJunkie.com, UFC heavyweight Todd Duffee expressed his desire for a fight with Alistair Overeem or Matt Mitrione.
