I’m not in this sport to see how hard I can get hit or to see how many big punches I can take. I am in this game to fight as long as I can. I am trying to dish a lot of punishment.

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.

You hear certain things, negative things, all the time that aren't true, but you never hear about the positive.

I know how I could beat myself: by not being disciplined, by slacking, by not dedicating myself to my craft, by not working hard, by not listening, by thinking I know it all - short like that.

When I was younger, my dad did want me to be perfect, so that's probably why that's installed in me to this day. I want to be perfect at whatever I do. I can't help it. It's just installed in me.

Anything I've asked of MGM Grand, they've done for me in a heartbeat. They're all about making entertainers and athletes happy.

Love me or hate me...you're gonna watch me.
