“Canelo, he is not a champion. He is a liar who has no respect for the sport of boxing or its fans.”

“Anytime a curtain closes forever, that's always sad news.”

“I am not Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., and Canelo is no Danny Jacobs.”

“People who like boxing like my style.”

“Sugar Ray Robinson is my favorite boxer of all time. He is a middleweight. I saw him and liked him.”

“Cain Velasquez - he is a good puncher. He is very compact. He's strong. He's very smart. He's a good fighter. He's a warrior.”

“When I come home, my wife is the boss.”

“I'm a boxer. I'm a boxer. If you're interested, just watch my boxing, not my life.”

“I have a lot of limited edition sneakers that Jordan sends me.”

“I remember seeing Sugar Ray Leonard, Mike Tyson, and the old films of Sugar Ray Robinson.”

“Canelo is the number one in Mexico, a country known for great fighters. He is very special.”

“It's always been a dream of mine to fight at Madison Square Garden, and it's something I really relish.”

“Those 'Rocky' endings are great in the movies and on the stage, but I don't think it would be too smart for me to get into that kind of fight in the ring.”

“I'm just a fighter.”

“If you want street fight, let's go. If you want boxing, I show you. But people think I am, like, gangster. No. Ring is different world. Very dangerous.”

“I am very positive. I like to box. I like my life. I am happy every day.”

“I love and respect my sport, but I am not a bad guy. First, I am a sportsman.”

“Boxing is sport. Is good. Not just for bad guy.”

“Oh, I like New York City. It's like my country. The people have good energy, good atmosphere. It's just work, work, work. Everyone is working. It's a lot like my country.”

“From the beginning, when my brother Vadim first took me to the boxing gym at 10, I was able to punch hard, and the coach always put me with older boys because of that.”
