It's only boxing, don't worry about it. Let's get it on!

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.

You don't need to go all deep and meaningful and start talking about Daddies. It's yes or no answer.

I've got no interest in going over to California to fight that boring git, in a fight that no one's interested in, and that's the reason why he's trying to pimp himself out everywhere.

He was WBC champion, I was mandatory. He had his opportunity to earn big money and defend against me, and he chose not to. It's as simple as that. He did not want to fight 'The Cobra', cos he knew he was probably going to get one of these (his fists) on the chin and it was going to be all over.

I hurt my hand on his head. He has a very hard head.

I knew it was all or nothing.
