>> Sugar's super young, you know.
He's still growing in so many areas,
mentally, on the ground.
He's growing so much and so fast.
Even on the feet, his comfortability on the feet
and definitely his powers change and his speed.
You know, he's earned this spot.
He's earned this attention.
People think that he's just some flashy punk kid,
but he's worked hard for the last seven,
eight years.
Grinding twice a day to get to this spot.
So he's really earned it.
He really deserves all that he's getting.

You saw me.
I look like a million bucks, baby.
I'm fast.
I'm strong.

Vicente Luque fighting an opponent

And yeah, we're gonna do a little technique.
Make sure he's sharp.

in wrestling.
So having a guy like Gilbert,
so decorated on the ground game,
pointing me out
the kinds of things that I have to do
better correct anything
and that's what we're doing right now.

I haven't really watched a ton of his fights.
I don't think he really comes out and wrestles.
You know, I think it's gonna be a kickboxing fight.
I'm prepared for an MMA fight.
I just think it's gonna be more of a kickboxing match.
I think it was in eighth grade.

>> Welcome to today's UFC 260 press conference.
This Saturday exclusively on Pay Per View,
the baddest men on the planet take center stage.
>> What's up, gang?
Thanks for coming out today.
We appreciate it.
Who's got the first question.
John Morgan.
>> Stipe, this is a huge rematch, of course.
You dominated him the first time you guys fought.
That night, did you think, "Man this is a guy
I'm probably gonna have to see again
at some point in my career," or did you think
you sent a statement enough that night like,
hey, we know who the better fighter is here?
>> I hope so.
But you know, he's definitely gotten better.
You know, we all evolved. He's definitely evolved.
And, of course, I knew I'd probably see him
down the road again.
Listen, it's gonna be a hell of a fight Saturday.
>> Thanks, Stipe. Francis.
When you think back to that first fight,
how do you remember it?
I mean, is it a night that you think,
"Man that was me having a terrible night?"
Or did you just look and say, "That guy was the better fighter
that night?"
>> When I look at that fight,
I hate watch that fight
because I don't recognize myself.
Even the way that I'm fighting,
the way that I'm rushing,
it doesn't-- that guy look like me,
but I don't recognize that self.
And I want to avenge that
and prove that I'm the best.
>> Stipe, back here.
His last two opponents,
they don't last two minutes and they go away.
So if you are watching these fights.
Are you seeing something, that one mistake,
that Francis' opponents keep making
that you know you can take advantage of?
>> Yeah, of course.
Just like his coaches are watching me fight,
and they can see if there's holes in my game.
I mean, that's just-- it's a chess game, man.
That's all it is.
You know, definitely we worked hard, last few months.
Been working on it and hopefully exploit it.
>> Finally, for Francis, do you feel
you're the best knockout artist in UFC history?
>> I'm not concerned about that.
Because that's not a title.
They don't attribute that as a title.
The title is to Stipe and that's what I want.
That's where my focus is at.
>> Good. Alright, thanks, guys.
I'll square these guys off for some photo ops.
See you Saturday.

You guys good? Ready?
