For me, I don't think about size - I focus more on being powerful and confident.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think my size sometimes catches people off guard, but I don't think size matters when it comes to power. Mechanics and technique and bat speed matter more.
I was always trying to make up for my size, to compensate. So to get people to take you seriously, you have to come at things with a great deal of strength. You have to emphasize that the way you are is unusual. That you don't come along every day.
A lot of people have doubted me because of my size. They think someone like me doesn't deserve to be in the main event, but I think if they knew me, and knew what I've been through in my career, they would respect me.
If I'm trying to put size on for a role, then I don't do much running.
You have to think big to be big.
When it comes to size, most people don't want to see themselves looking bigger than what they are.
It's about learning what's important and what's not important, and at the end of the day, what size you are does not matter at all. I don't have time to worry about that stuff; I'm going to be healthy.
I've always been comfortable with my size.
Success isn't about being the biggest. It's about letting the right size find you.
For me personally, I try to use my size to my advantage where I can either slip by guys or try to create more space for myself.
