The challenge for me is his size because, for the first time in my career, I'll be meeting an opponent who is taller than me and has a longer reach.

It was like a musician playing notes. Everything we trained worked.

I've fought everybody without ducking anyone. I have beaten 10 undefeated guys, and I never was comparing myself to the greatest in the sport. I was not thinking of breaking any records. I'm just enjoying my time in boxing.

It's such a gift in my life to be able to compete - to have the health.

My goal is not getting hit and to knock the other guy out. Some people might complain because they want to see boxers beat up on each other, but you cannot last long in professional boxing if you take a lot of punches.

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

If he goes down, he is to get up, and continue to fight, until I finish the process.
