I've always believed that you can be whatever you want to be if you are willing to sacrifice and dedicate yourself.

I think I've become one of the best finishers in boxing; if I hurt a guy, I normally take him out.

Someone once said there was a comparison between Sugar Ray Leonard and Sugar Ray Robinson. Believe me, there's no comparison. Sugar Ray Robinson was the greatest.

Boxing brings out my aggressive instinct, not necessarily a killer instinct.

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.

When I turned pro, Muhammad Ali was laying back, and I was able to fill up an area that was empty.

I'll think, If this is his first punch, how are the others gonna feel? That's the only fear I have for myself
