It's tough to get out of bed to do roadwork at 5 am when you've been sleeping in silk pajamas

There are a lot of things and in order to be at the top and maintain your focus you have to have something that motivates you. For me, it was what I perceived as a lack of respect from the boxing world as well as the media, which made me want to work so hard and be great.

I am a fighter who walks, talks and thinks fighting but I try not to look like it

Sitting here now today, I can forgive a lot of the English people because it only takes a hand full of bad people to do something stupid like that and it can make the whole country look bad.

Nothing can intimidate me. I just go out and destruct and destroy.

You know looking back on it now I used the fight and after the fight as motivation, to make sure I was going to be the best middleweight in the world for a long time.
