Criticism is a great motivation. Failure is not an option to me.

He's been an inspiration for me since the Olympics 1996.

Politics is comparable to boxing. The only thing is that in politics there are basically no rules. In boxing, you can get a black eye, but in politics you can get poison in your food or a bullet in the head. It's definitely rougher and tougher than other sports.

I would compare it to an actor. I drive myself into the character that later on is in the ring.

My brother is a doctor and he will take care of post-traumatic stress. I think he'll do it for free.

It is up to the people and boxing fans to give me the respect I deserve once I have finished my career. I personally do not think about my legacy.

From nothing to everything is a long way, from everything to nothing is one stop.
