My performance against Ruiz was a good one - there were plenty of knockdowns, excitement, and drama.
I had an exciting style, I was very aggressive, a body puncher, and I attacked all the time.
The life of a boxer is about fighting for world titles.
I'm a huge boxing fan. I love the strategy and the combat.
Boxing is a dying sport, really. Years ago, the world heavyweight champion could be said to have reached the highest pinnacle of sport. Even in this country, boxers were heroes. Think of Henry Cooper and Frank Bruno.
The bell that tolls for all in boxing belongs to a cash register.
Andre Ward beat me fair and square on points in a boring fight, a dull affair. Same as when he beat Kessler. Headbutted him to bits, but he knows how to win. He wins ugly, but he knows how to win.
Boxing is made for film - there is corruption, violence, tragedy and the chance that the underdog can catch the champion with one lucky punch.
To make it in boxing, you must captivate the fans in America, too.
