If I hadn't had the talent, the networks wouldn't have televised my fights. No one has made me; I made myself. I paid my dues

I found boxing when I was 14 years old. I went down to the gym because my brother, who used to beat me up all the time, introduced me to boxing. I found boxing to be a sport that I felt safe in because I controlled what was in those four squares.
