“Canelo is a counterpuncher, a boxer, and that’s what I am.”

I don’t care about losing. How many times did Michael Jordan lose before he won his first championship? It wasn’t about the number of losses with Sugar Ray Leonard or Tommy Hearns.

Adjust to your surroundings, because the world don’t wait for you.

I really have no fear.

I’ve become a better boxer and a better person.

This is a pretty barbaric game. You can’t really let emotions get into the way.

I take no step backward from anyone.

I ain’t intimidated by Mayweather. Nobody could intimidate me.

I’ve said all along that I was destined for greatness.

I could have been the next Babe Ruth. No doubt about it.

How am I one of the biggest fighters in the world and I get bigger paychecks outside of boxing?

I know Golden Boy definitely believes in me and backs me 100 percent.

I want Gervonta. That’s my Lomachenko fight – the fight that people don’t think I can win.

I want to break down barriers in boxing.

I paid attention to how Floyd Mayweather adapts.

To beat Gervonta? That would be good.

My improvements, my fights and the competition is going to get better. I’m going to be ready for it.

I never compare myself to anybody. I don’t look at my accomplishments compared to anyone. I’m happy with what I’ve accomplished in boxing.

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

I’ve seen George Foreman shadow boxing and the shadow won.

Boxing is real easy. Life is much harder.

In boxing, you never know who you’re going to face in the ring.

I just want to make money, get on with my life, and be involved in good fights. If I’m not going to be involved in good fights, then what’s the point being a boxer?

Boxing is a sport. We allow each other to hit each other, but I’m not treating my opponent like my enemy. We’re doing a job to entertain people.

Training’s training; boxing’s boxing. Everyone does the same kind of stuff: they spar, they train, they do whatever they do to prepare for fights.
