I've already established my (political)machinery. It's like a car. It's fixed already. You just have to get in and drive it.

As for me, I always train for 12 rounds just in case. I don’t train for three, four, one, or 10 rounds - I have to train for 12 because you never know what will happen that night.

In the ring I can tell right away what his style is and I can adapt to it. I'm adjusting to life as a politician. It's different in training but I can stay focused on both.

I'm always having fun in training and in boxing. I think it's because boxing is my passion.

Only in death will I relinquish my belts.

I want the people of the Philippines to be happy, even if they have nothing.

If you don't have God in your life, you are nothing.
