He is my idol. I try to imitate his body shots.

For me, boxing is like going to school. You learn to respect your competitors. It's opened doors for me. It's competitive, but I know I have what it takes. My dream is to be a great lightweight fighter.

When I'm inside the ring, I know I've accomplished a lot to get there.

This body had carried me through a hard life. It looked exactly the way it was supposed to.

Nobody ever sees the inside of their body, ... It's wild ... it's not nearly as orderly as you think it's going to be.

I'm 33 years old; I probably have a body like a 45- or 50-year-old, and I only do it part-time. My back's sore every day I get up, I have trouble walking down the stairs first thing in the morning -- but it's a sacrifice that you have to make.
