almost closest fighter gets pumped ready time
Every time a fighter comes out to fight me, this is almost a world-title fight. This may be the closest he gets to the big time. So absolutely, I'm pumped and I'm ready for each and every fight.
ability amazing both fighting fly guys hands left looking major switch work
I am very comfortable fighting southpaw, ... both my right and left hands are powerful. My ability to switch on the fly really is amazing -- most guys are not looking for it and then BOOM, I switch to southpaw and they are on the mat. I think that is a major part of my game, and I work on that as much as I do my conventional style.
fighting walking-away games
The part that sickens me about boxing is guys fight their whole careers and they have nothing to show for it. That's not going to be my testimony. When it's time to get out of the game, I want to be able to walk away. I'm not going to jeopardize my health. I will have no problems walking away.
motivation fighter happens
I told myself that I'll do everything within my power to never let that happen again.
motivation size fighter
It's not about size, it's a science.
motivation fighter knockouts
You can still entertain without getting a knockout.
motivation fighting winning
This fight should be dubbed, 'No Excuses.' If Carl Froch beats me, there won't be any excuses. I beat Carl Froch, there shouldn't be any excuses. No judges, no referees, no nothing. May the best man win.
motivation fighting fighter
What you gotta understand is, in this conversation and in our fight, you're not in control.
motivation fans fighter
I'm just excited that the fans are going to get their money's worth, and you can't say that a lot of the times.
motivation fighting thinking
He says he was physically not right, that's fine but the mentality, even if you're not right, you're still in a fight and you still show what you have deep down inside, and I don't think he showed the mettle that he needed to show in that fight in order to beat a guy like Miranda.
motivation fighting sick
Even if you are sick, you fight until you have nothing left.
motivation fighting champion
I'm not going to say that I'm the best, we respect our champions. Floyd's been doing this a lot longer than me, he's been a lot of mega fights and I won't dare say that I'm better than Floyd Mayweather.
motivation fighting night
I like to talk come fight night, that's how I do it, but I'm not a pushover.
motivation men fighter
He's built up to be invincible and no man is invincible, any man can be knocked out.
