Deontay Wilder

When they throw punches, the breathing, the sparring. The heavy bags being hit. All of that - it was a heavenly sound to me. ”

Nothing has been given to Deontay Wilder. So with that being said, nothing is going to be taken from me. So I must stay focused. I must. I must. It is an absolute must to stay focused. ”

Whether somebody think badly of me, whether somebody don't feel that I should be doing this or I should be doing that way, I don't really care. Whether they think that my fatigue is being laid, legs are skinny, I don't care. ”

The craziest thing about it, I used to hate fighting, but you had to show how tough you was; you had to show you wasn't no punk. ”

I am very comfortable travelling and going into other territories. ”

When you have a fighter willing to do that, when he is seriously hurt and in pain but still fights, you've got a dangerous man on your hands. ”

I'm not playing around in 2016. ”

If I have to go through Fury after my Povetkin fight - and I never look past my next fight; I am not that foolish - to get those belts, I would love to fight him next. ”

I don't have to build up strength; I have been blessed with it. I do lift weights and train hard, but I am a very special individual - a very special man with very special talent and very special power. I can get any man - any man - out of there in a matter of seconds. That is the thing I love about myself. ”

Anybody who knows me knows that I don't just love this sport, I am in love with it. I am really in love with this sport. I am obsessed with boxing. I eat, breathe and sleep it. You know, I do it all; this is my life. This is not a hobby for me. This is a lifestyle for me, and I address it accordingly. I take it very, very seriously. ”
