“If you settle in life, you don’t go further.”

I’m not afraid of failure.

The hardest part is just hearing people saying that I won’t amount to crap, and that I’m going to be a bust.

I’m ready to test my skills with the best fighters.

I know pretty much all my analytics and I take that into consideration when I’m posting.

I admire people who have fought for change: Martin Luther King Jr., Harriet Tubman, Abraham Lincoln. I’m dead serious when I say that – those are my heroes. I also like Ben Affleck.

Boxing is dangerous. Anything can happen, so you need supreme confidence. That’s why I represent myself like nobody can beat me, because I need to truly believe it.

You need the trash talk, and I’m an entertainer. I don’t care if I look positive or not.

I want to be the best so I am ready to do anything.

I wasn’t too excited about school, I’m not going to lie.

Some people are just naive to what they say.

I love to box, because I think boxing is an art.

I’m trying to involve the fans and bring in a crowd where not only do they love boxing but they love me as a person.

You can be a champion and you can be flashy with money and cars but you have a big platform. What are you trying to change?

Just like I have all the capabilities to become a big star, Golden Boy has all the tools to get me there.

The more I get better, the opposition has to get better.

Every time I throw, I hate to miss. It’s like those timing games in the arcades. I win every single time. Guys watch me and they pay me to keep playing.
