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.

Nobody is born as a champion. You have to earn it through hard work. Get started!

Aggression means emotions. Emotions means you’re gonna get off your plan and that means you’ll lose the fight.

Defeat will help you. I've been there and done that. I shook it off and came back stronger. It's nothing to be scared about.

I heard that I am crazy for taking this fight but I'm very excited about this chance. His manager is saying that I'm a 'dead man walking' but 'dead men' cannot have 'nightmares'.

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

In the old days, when Muhammad Ali was fighting Ken Norton, Joe Frazier and George Foreman, there was a lot of excitement in the heavyweight division, I have to admit it.
