“I bought a Lamborghini, SV Aventador, one of 600. Modified. There's other 'Lambos' out there, but that one I have is unique.”
“I'm never out there looking for the KO. If it's there, I'll take it.”
“I feel I have the power and the skillset to compete in any division up to welterweight.”
“I'm fighting champion after champion. Those are the fights that will excite me the most and motivate me the most.”
“I think I carry the power well at lightweight.”
“I'm very confident in my skills and my abilities. I know what I can do.”
“All of the great fighters have had losses but are still considered among the greatest ever. The undefeated record is not as important to me as facing the toughest challenges out there.”
“Every fighter has a different agenda. Every promoter has a different agenda for their fighter. Every manager has a different agenda. So things change all the time.”
“My dad had a third-grade education in Mexico. Third grade. My mom had a fifth-grade education. They were raised in a poor home... They got married and they had their family, but there's hardly any future.”
“If I want to accomplish what I want, I have to take care of my body.”
“I'm not afraid to step up and take challenges.”
“I'm definitely interested in facing Linares.”
“My dad had his dream of being a champion boxing trainer. He accomplished that.”
“I don't have a number set that I'm chasing, but I do believe I'll be a champion at 140, and again at 147.”
“I've had a stellar career.”
“I'm about big challenges, big obstacles, and just to show everybody that I'm the best.”
“Why take the pay-per-view gamble? I don't need to do that.”
“I would love to fight anybody at the welterweight limit with a belt.”
“I'm always the favorite heading into fights. My accomplishments don't get credit because I'm supposed to win.”
“I want people to look back at my career and say, 'That guy never backed down from anyone.'”
