There's ups and downs with boxing, layoffs are part of the sport and they can either help or hurt a guy.

Self-preservation is an important thing to me.

It's about having personality...it's not about being the bad guy, it's about entertaining people.

I want to beat the best out there and whoever is considered the top fighters of my era.

When I was in the ring at the Olympics, it was my father's words that I was hearing, not the coaches'. 'I never listened to what the coaches said. I would call my father and he would give me advice from prison.

A belt don't make me.

I'm always going to love my father.
