“I remember as a little boy I ate one meal a day and sometimes slept in the street. I will never forget that and it inspires me to fight hard, stay strong and remember all the people of my country, trying to achieve better for themselves.”

Right now I’m inspired to fight for the honour of my country.

My #1 driving force is my lord and savior Jesus Christ. Also my family, my wife and children.

It’s very relaxing for me to sing. It’s a good break from the hard training and the fighting.

I’m just a regular person who believes life is simple, and I like a simple life.

Well you know it’s dangerous in politics, because especially in the Philippines there’s a lot of killing in politics.

All those who are around me are the bridge to my success, so they are all important.

The biggest fight in my life is not in boxing. The biggest fight in my life is how to end poverty in my country.

I eat the same foods almost every day. I have my favorites like Filipino beef broth, chicken soup with lots and lots of rice.

I want to be the best fighter. I would like to fight in the biggest fights.

I’m always having fun in training and in boxing. I think it’s because boxing is my passion.

We have a job to do. After the fight, I’ll love him.

As for me, I always train for 12 rounds just in case. I don’t train for three, four, one, or 10 rounds – I have to train for 12 because you never know what will happen that night.

I was just doing my job in the ring and doing my best to make people happy.

You’re still my idol.
