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

If you don’t have God in your life, you are nothing.

Even in my prime, I need God in my life because without God, we’re nothing.

Human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.

I’m just going to punch him and do my best. If the knockout comes, it comes.

I live my life like everyday is my last.

I’m not against gay people.

Imagine what I would have done with my fire-breathing fists.

It’s just a game. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

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.

Most of leaders in Philippine politics come from rich family.

Obey God’s law first before considering the laws of man.

Nothing personal – I am just doing my job.

I know what poverty is.

I come from a poor family.

Nobody can say that I’m lazy in training.

I’m happy to help people.

If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it – then I can achieve it.

I’ll beat him so bad he’ll need a shoehorn to put his hat on.

Success is not achieved by winning all the time. Real success comes when we rise after we fall.

It’s hard to be humble when you’re as great as I am.

What counts in the ring is what you can do after you’re exhausted. The same is true of life.

All through my life, I have been tested. My will has been tested, my courage has been tested, my strength has been tested. Now my patience and endurance are being tested.

Superman don’t need no seat belt.

If you even dream of beating me you’d better wake up and apologize.
