Well, my mother and certain other people in my life - a lot of important people - have said, "Floyd, nobody is perfect except for god." And I always knew that; I just wanted my victories to be flawless. I didn't want to get hit at all. I wasn't gonna make any mistakes. And that's the problem with me growing up and being around a trainer that wants his fighter to be perfect.

Self-preservation is an important thing to me.

I don't fight for legacy. I don't fight for none of that, I fight for that check. I'm in the check cashing business.

The sport needs the cash cow back.

I'm a firm believer that before you can go anywhere, you have to conquer the level that you are at, just like young kids do it today with video games, they have to finish one level to go to the next one. Conquer one level at the time, and only then you'll get where you want to go to.

Once I beat a guy, mentally and physically, hes never the same.

Once again we're talking to Brian Kenny, a man of many traits, a master of nothing.
