Marcos Maidana

“I have that one-punch KO power in both hands but I won't only be going for the head. Most of Floyd's opponents have done that but his defence is so good.”

“That's what my life has been all about: Every time I get dropped, I come back and win.”

“When I first analyzed Mayweather, I thought he would be too fast to hit.”

“I started boxing aged 15 when a local man, Ricardo Linari, opened a boxing club in Margarita. I just seemed to be able to knock people out, and that power has stayed with me.”

“They might say that Broner is one of the best, but I don't think he is.”

“Most of the time I got knockouts in my amateur fights.”

“I am not a man who goes to church, but me and my team believe in God.”

“Floyd can say whatever he wants about me. He knows that I gave him the toughest fight of his life.”

“The 147-pound division is where I feel best. I didn't feel that way at 140. Now I'm free and I can eat more.”

“Maybe judges like fighters who run.”

“I'm fighting and beating great fighters.”

“We knew that Erik Morales was a great warrior and he was going to give a great fight. I never thought it was going to be an easy fight. I was expecting a war and that is exactly what happened.”

“We did not have a lot of money when I was growing up.”

“I'm surprised I got the rematch, since Floyd has only done it one other time in his career.”

“I know a lot of people don't count me in as a factor in the welterweight division, but they have the right to think that way. I only want my chance to prove what I can do in the ring.”

“I will fight anyone they put in front of me.”

“I hit very hard and every time I land a punch I hurt my opponent.”

“Yeah, yeah, I used to ride horses.”

“I just love hunting.”

“I want to be welterweight champion.”
