Looking back at all of my defeats, the only real punishment that I've taken in this sport was against Maidana. I got a fractured jaw.

I hope I get credit when I beat Jessie Vargas. I hope I get the credit I deserve. People want me to lose and go away, but guess what? I worked harder than ever for this fight. I'm not losing to Jessie Vargas.

I'm a four-time world champion, so I don't want to hear anything about my losses.

Jessie Vargas is not as good as those guys I lost to.

The sky is the limit for me, but in boxing you have to take it one fight at a time.

You can't overlook anybody in this sport.

I'm a competitor.

I'm a competitor.

God doesn't make mistakes.

To come to somebody's hometown and beat them on a split decision, that's saying something.

I don't try to knock out people.

Adrian Granados is a world-class fighter. A lot of guys duck him, but I wanted to fight him because that's what I'm about.

At six years old, I told my dad that I would be world champion, and on Nov. 26, 2011, I am.

Every time I fought at home, I gave my fans a knockout. I spoiled my fan base in Cincinnati.

Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.

You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.

If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.

Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
