"I told him from Day 1, I said 'Doc, I need this to be strong. I need to know that if someone picks me up and slams me on my head, my back isn't going to break And he said 'When I'm done with you, your back - the parts that I fuse - will be stronger than the rest of your back."'

-- Middleweight Nate Quarry talks about his two-year break from fighting to recover from spinal fusion surgery. He'll be in action tonight when he rematches Pete Sell at UFC Fight Night 11 from The Palms Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
