I'm going to destroy him. I'm going to show everybody. I'm going to knock Hasim right out. I am the best fighter in the world, pound-for-pound.
Get Julian Jackson in here baby!...Julian Jackson, winner take all baby, that's all I gotta say, winner take all! Arghhh!
I don't like you. Why you walk up on me dawg!?, I don't like you, I don't like you.
I have always been ready to fight anybody out there, anytime, anywhere. I will knock them all over. My talent speaks for itself.
The only freak show I got is between my legs.
I'm not going nowhere. I'm going to stand right in front of him. When he hits me, he's going to say, 'Damn, why didn't anything happen to him?' I hope he keeps his promise. Bring the pain to me because I'll be willing to accept it.
I'm not gonna box Ruiz, ... I don't box, I knock holes through people. I'm gonna cut Ruiz up. I'm gonna butcher him. He ain't gonna last five rounds. Either he winds up on the canvas or in the hospital. It's his choice.
I'm the heavyweight champion of the world. That's bottom line,
I have always been ready to fight anybody out there, any time, anywhere. I will knock them all over. My talent speaks for itself.
It's all right here. And heart and determination. I'm 37 years old and I feel like I'm 27. I'm getting better with age.
Dominick is a good fighter, and he was the only one who stepped up and was willing to fight me, ... I'm not looking past him. I wish the fight was tomorrow because I'm ready to go.
I promise you I will be better in my next fight, ... I want to be a fighting champion, a great champion.
I give myself a B minus. My right hand is a little sluggish. You have not seen the best of me. I want to fight again next month.
I thought about it for a little bit. You know what? It does not matter. I did it. I beat him. I beat Ruiz.
