The Dallas rap scene is growing, and hopefully we get to a level like Houston - everybody supporting each other, building each other up to be great. ”

Putting up a great performance against Lamont Peterson will skyrocket me. The goal is to become the No. 1 welterweight in the division, so if I keep beating these guys around me and then fight Keith Thurman, people will rate me as No. 1 because I've beat the top names, and he's been inactive. ”

We have to keep winning and looking good and keep fighting the best competition out there. ”

Of course I would want the knockout, but with me, I just look for, you know, a spectacular performance. It's like, walk them down, or go for the knockout. You know, hopefully I get the knockout. ”

I just look for another spectacular fight, another spectacular one-sided performance. ”

I want to stay active and busy. I don't just want to fight a no-name opponent. I want a decent name or a big name or a world champion, somebody who is going to challenge me. That's just it. ”

Mexican fighters have a great tradition. They come to fight, and they don't back down. ”

It's just my character, naturally. I don't really talk that much. It's just who I am. I just back it up in the ring. There is no need to talk... I'm not the guy who rambles. ”

If Keith Thurman comes back, and he has a great fight and he shows what he's been showing in the fights with Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter, everyone is going to talk about Errol Spence vs. Keith Thurman. ”

When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be playing for the Cowboys. ”
