As Long As You Know You Gave

Boxing Is What Pays My Bills.

You Know, As A Young Child, I Lay In My Bedroom And I Swore To Myself Then: 'i'm Not Going To Smoke And I'm Not Going To Drink.' And I Said I'm Not Going To Just Say That When I'm A Kid. I'm Going To Stick To That As An Adult. I Kept That In Mind My Whole Life.

You Know, Everybody Has A Slogan, And Once You Beat People Over The Head With It So Much, Then That's What You'll Eventually Be Called Once You Retire From The Sport Or Whatever.

I'm A Man Of My Word.

Boxing Has Always Been Work To Me, A Job. If I Could Say Anything To A Youngster Taking Up Boxing It Would Be To "be Smart And Not Take A Lot Of Punches". It's Called The Sweet Science For A Reason. Hit And Not Be Hit, Make A Lot Of Money Without Taking A Lot Of Punishment. That's What It's About.
