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.

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.

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

My height is an advantage, if I want to use it.

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.

You can take your fitness seriously, but not yourself. That's the most difficult part: not to relax. That's the most difficult challenge I'm facing every fight.

When people are tipsy, they're really encouraged and they wanna prove they can do something to the Heavyweight champion.
