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.

I would only spend a week or two in the Philippines, most probably the week during my birthday because I am planning to give away Christmas gifts to the poor people of General Santos just like what I did last year.

I'm not against gay people.

It's very relaxing for me to sing. It's a good break from the hard training and the fighting.

I was in tailoring business, I sold flowers on the street, I worked construction and many odd jobs.

I’ve worked in construction, in a factory sewing clothes. I also sold flowers and doughnuts - just odd jobs to try to make 10 pesos, which is equivalent to 20 cents.

I come from a poor family.
