I worked like a horse and I ate like a hog and I slept like a dead man.
I like to be confident, absolutely not cocky, and I like to have that healthy fear of my opponents. It keeps me on my toes.
Life is going to present you with tons of problems, it's what you do about them that matters.
Hang onto that goal and you do what you have to do to make it happen.
Being strong, showing that you will see things through no matter what comes your way, that's what matters most to me.
My desire to fight comes from within. . . it's a personal journey of accomplishment, not meant to be judges or for me to judge others.
Am I nervous? Yeah. Am I scared? Sure. But I do this because I love it.
It means the world to me to represent the Hispanic community.
I don't digest things with my mind.
How stunning are the changes which age makes in a man while he sleeps!
Upon awakening in the morning, I wondered if the proceedings of the night before had been a dream. It was hard to believe that I was the world's heavyweight champion.
