“For a million-dollar cheque I would punch Jake Paul.”

I’ve always had girls liking me.

I’m definitely not afraid to take on any type of challenge.

Seeing guys like Canelo helps me get better because they are already champions and I want to become champion. Having role models like that helps me a lot.

You have to believe in yourself.

My self-belief, really is what kept me going, I always believed I could be a great champion, a world champion.

I got speed and power. I got two things. And I’ve all the other aspects of boxing.

I just fight like myself. I’m like a cat – if I see the opening, I’m going to shoot for it. I think what stands out is my accuracy.

In 2020, I want to set a standard where I’m only fighting the best guys.

Once I beat Gervonta Davis like I’ve been calling it, that’s going to be like history repeats itself with Sonny Liston and Muhammad Ali.

I want to leave my own legacy and write my own story.

I’m learning what triggers me. What to stay away from. What I do like and what I don’t like. To me, I’ve learned so much about myself that now I’m a stronger person. But I still deal with anxiety. Anxiety doesn’t go away.

I’m explosive.

I just learn from every legend that I’ve watched. I learned from the best.

One of the most important things for me is my family. You know, they keep me grounded, they keep me humble. They always made sacrifices with me.

I paid attention how to land a big shot, like Oscar De La Hoya with the left hook.

It doesn’t matter how much experience Jayson Velez has, whether he fought for a world title or not. I’m going to see how he fights, and I’ll know what to do.
