I'm in love with boxing. It fell into my lap and I have been in love with it ever since.

When a 140 pounder that moves up fights a 140 pounder moved up and they move up it's a catch weight.

It was my dream as a kid was to make history.

All I ever wanted was to be like Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns, Hagler and Sugar Ray Leonard. Back in the day American people knew who they were and I want them to now know Keith 'One Time' Thurman.

I tell people all the time, nobody wants to be hit. You have to trick a man, to hit a man.

So far the biggest accomplishment I give myself is getting the silver in the Olympic Trials. Even though it's kind of a defeat. Not too many people make it that far. I do see it as an accomplishment and one of my greatest.
