I'm never out there looking for the KO. If it's there, I'll take it.
I like to wear cowboy gear once in a while. Whenever the occasion comes. In the ring, we used to wear a poncho and the hat.
I trust my brother and my dad. They know my capabilities and my skills. If they tell me to do something, they know best.
I'm not an 'opponent.' I don't believe I should be treated as an opponent.
I fight for my name. For my dad's last name to be recognized in the history books of boxing.
I want to be great. I want to prove to everybody that I am great.
I don't think being undefeated is going to determine my greatness.
I'm always the favorite heading into fights. My accomplishments don't get credit because I'm supposed to win.
I want to give my fans great fights to remember me by.
I want to add to my legacy because, in the end, that's going to be the most valuable for my career.
If I did a multiple-fight deal, I could probably get more money but it's not always about the money.
I've been dropped. You get up, and you win the fight.
If I look forward to bigger fights, than the biggest fight for me is Manny Pacquiao.
I'm fighting champion after champion. Those are the fights that will excite me the most and motivate me the most.
I was fighting at 125 pounds when I was 15 years old... Then became a champion at 126 pounds at 25 years old.
I make the fight look easy and people haven't seen the best.
I've been on cruise control with my opponents, even though I fought some very good champions, undefeated champions.
As a champion, you always want challenges.
I'll take any lightweight.
To cement your name, you've got to go after the biggest fights.
I made it a goal of mine to fight the biggest challenges, so that people can appreciate who I am as a fighter.
I feel that's what a real champion needs to be doing, dare to take on the best fights possible.
I want to get bigger and better fights, where people can recognize me as one of the better fighters in the world.
I'm small for 140.
I don't have a number set that I'm chasing, but I do believe I'll be a champion at 140, and again at 147.
I'm here to let everyone know I'm taking bigger fights and I'm not afraid on taking the bigger challenges.
I'm not afraid to step up and take challenges.
I'm here to take control of my career and take it to where I believe it should be.
I know that at the end of my career I'll get the credit I deserve.
It's not OK for somebody to push a fighter into a corner and strong-arm him to accept whatever the promoter wants.
