Two big punchers, you've got to keep your chin down, keep your defense up, don't be careless or open, box sensibly, control the centre of the ring and when he lets his punches go, believe me he's gonna know all about it.

There's no silver spoon treatment in this place.

Lacy was a pleasurable fight. It wasn't my hardest fight because I won every single minute of every single round.

The lacy fight was a career defining fight.

I train the same way as I've always trained, even before I was champion. That's the difference, I train like a challenger.

I've been boxing for 25 years and I need exciting fights.

It's not my place to say how good I was because the thing is, every champion from every era is a great fighter and it's up to one person's interpretation to who is actually the best.
