I was one of those kids that was always picked on but, one thing I gotta say it that no matter how bad your life gets, there's always a bright light out there and you gotta find it.

My father and I, we finally saw each other eye to eye and I think he's seeing me as a man, and I'm seeing him as the father he's always been.

I was 11 when I started boxing. My brother was fighting before I did, and he got me into it.

Growing up as an amateur, I wasn't much of a power puncher. I was more of a speed guy.

My Internet friends who I play games with say, 'This guy's a fighter?' I'm the last person they expect to be a fighter.

Everything in our family was always boxing. It was the life my father chose for me.

I seek to fight the best out there. I seek to fight the champions in every division I go up to.
