You get to be famous or have some notoriety and there are so many people who want a piece of you.

The fight life, that was easy. This is a battle I have every day.

Every time I work out in the gym, every time I train, I know I'm going to do well. But I like surprising the fans, the critics, the people who doubt me.

I'm really happy to be working with CES Boxing, Gary Shaw Productions and Eye of the Tiger Management. It shows the direction in which Golden Boy Promotions is heading - in terms of bringing the best fights to the fans. It shows that Golden Boy Promotions is willing to work with anybody in order to satisfy the boxing fans.

Everything I have in this world, I owe to the sport of boxing, and I won't ever forget that.

I was a little kid who used to fight a lot in the street-and get beat up.

I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and know I took everyone on.
