If I'm going to get hit, why let the guy who's going to hit me get the easiest and best shot? I explode into the guy who's trying to tackle me.

It ain't about if he knocks a guy out. It's about how he knocks a guy out. It's the style, the improvisation.

People say of every opponent, 'When are you going to knock him out?' But I'm not like Mike Tyson, who came flying out of his corner. I'm much more composed. A guy is supposed to be durable, but then I start finding my range, and, well, it comes together. Boom.

If you need more than 10 rounds to hunt, and some argue they hunt with that many rounds, you shouldn't be hunting. If you can't get the deer in 3 shots, you shouldn't be hunting. You are an embarrassment.

People are starting to see that now and I've learnt more from those 10 rounds than I have in my previous 10 fights.

Every fight's like that. You try to break the guy's will.

I mean, one shot you treat like you have forty little matches instead of one forty shot match. It makes all the difference in the world. It's easier to just forget about a not so good shot.

Everyone who shoots dance sequences does it in a different way. Everyone who shoots fight sequences does it in a different way.

I was never a strikeout pitcher. Why should I throw eight or nine balls to get a man out when I got away with three or four?

I don't remember too many rounds where you get shots given to you. Usually, ones are taken away.
