Anyone can be a Son Of God if they wish to be and have the faith. I need to articulate this so everyone understands.

You have to change on the fly. You have to adapt. It's what I do. It's what wins for me.

I don't necessarily think fighters should fight killers every time, but at some point in time, fighters should be fighting the best in their division, period.

I'm a very respectful fighter, I don't get out of character and start talking crazy, but if you don't want to fight a fighter, or you don't think it's a good style, or it's just not time, then say that.

It takes time for people to respect you.

I want to be a champion for a long time, and I want to take the least amount of punishment possible doing so.

I'm a five-time world champion in two different weight classes. Man, it's amazing.

He was competitive in every fight and brought his best every time out, so I have nothing personal against Froch. I actually like him a lot because he reminds me a lot of myself with his competitiveness.

It's not all the time, but you get a sense when you're reading something that it's no longer about boxing or the performance. It's personal.

People don't realize I tore my rotator cuff when I was 12 or 13. At that time, being so young, we decided just to not have surgery.

Manny Pacquiao has a whole country behind him. His journey and his rise, from a career standpoint, he was fortunate to have a lot of great opponents and rivalries for years. People forget about Barrera and Morales and those guys. That's how he built his legacy. Plus he had a country behind him.

I talk to amateurs, up-and-coming guys, fighters older than me, and we compare notes to teach each other how to leave this game on top from a legacy and financial standpoint.
