Nowadays it would be reasonable to have an annual world championship.

No world championship has been easy for me.

It just feels good to beat the world champs to be the world champs.

We just want to win. That's the bottom line. I think a lot of times people may become content with one championship or a little bit of success, but we don't really reflect on what we've done in the past. We focus on the present.

I feel like winning a world championship was a hurdle I had to get over.

I'm a professional world champion. Of course if you're a world champion, you're working harder than everybody else. You're making the commitment, and you're making the sacrifices. If it were easy, everybody would be able to do it. Everybody would be able to be world champion, but everybody can't be. Everybody doesn't have it in them.

I think that major championships are as much about attitude as they are anything else.

You don't know what it is to be heavyweight champ of the world until you become the heavyweight champ of the world.

Winning isn't always championships.

I love being world champion.
