Bute coming over here is a big mistake.

I knew it was all or nothing.

You've got to be careful against classy fighters, especially counter-punchers because if you go for the finish too early, you can end up getting finished yourself.

Somebody thinking that they can make noise intimidate me is comical.

It is satisfying following such an emphatic victory over the current unbeaten champion (Lucian Bute) to know that there's a lot of people eating humble pie.

Boxers are going away and not getting decisions and are losing, so it's not looking good for us, is it, as a nation? Thanks for pointing that out. It's put even more pressure on me now. I don't mind that at all. I love pressure.

My first fight was a little weasel from American called Andre Dirrell. I say that because he runs and holds, and I hope Abraham bangs him out.
