I've always been motivated to be a champion since the age of 13 and I love being a winner.

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.

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

The lacy fight was a career defining fight.

I feel blessed that I managed to fight 46 fights undefeated, that I was a world champion for 11 years, one of the longest reigning champions of all time and I like to think that I come out looking pretty good.

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

If I look at the fighters that are coming through, fighters like Carl Froch for instance, do I worry about fighters like that? Course not, I could eat them for breakfast.
