I believe I'm a pretty good fighter and have accomplished more than Lomachenko.
Whether someone like Klitschko wins, loses, draws, or gets knocked out in five seconds, he is still a big name.
Everyone in boxing knows that I am a big guy.
I want to get bigger and better fights, where people can recognize me as one of the better fighters in the world.
My fifth pro fight, I got my first title fight.
The Youngest World Heavyweight Champion in History!
I haven't had the recognition I deserve, You can go back to anybody's career - Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe, David Haye, Amir Khan, Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, Steve Collins, Naseem Hamed. My record is better than all of theirs.
Klitschko was the reigning champion for a decade and regarded by many as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. I'm never going to face another opponent with that legacy.
Now that I've achieved my goal to win the belt, I want to be the best of all times. I want to be remembered as the lightweight with most title defenses.
My idol was Julio Cesar Chavez, and I said I would be in his position.
Ricky Hatton would knock Khan out. 5 years ago or now.
It would be a great thing for my legacy to get in the ring with an all-time great.
Amir Khan is Amir Khan. He's a great fighter; he's got great attributes. But Prince Naseem brought something completely different to any other fighter in the whole world.
I can take over boxing with a win over Pacquiao.
I think I should I have beaten Ricky Hatton. I never thought he was so great, I really think I have the style to beat him. I never thought he was that good, you know.
You know, I think I had a great career; there's not much I think I'd do different other than get a title shot much earlier. I didn't get one till 49 or 50 fights into my career.
No matter what happens, I'll never be the greatest cruiserweight. That title belongs to Holyfield.
I want to be a champion. I want to be a long-reigning featherweight champion. I want to be known in the history books: my name everywhere as a champion. And then, later on in my career, when I start getting good, then I can start doing the exhibition matches for money and stuff.
Sugar Ray Robinson was at the top of the boxing world during the 1950's when it seemed that he would either win or lose the championship about every three or four months.
Before the start of the '76 Olympics, I'd had 160 amateur fights. I won 155 and lost five.
My first four fights in amateur at middleweight, and the first four professional were at welterweight. And I just kind of went down from there.
I turned pro as a 20-year-old, won a world title a year later, and remained a world champion ever since.
God only made one thing in this world that's perfect - and that's my boxing record.
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.
I'm not going to say that I'm the best, we respect our champions. Floyd's been doing this a lot longer than me, he's been a lot of mega fights and I won't dare say that I'm better than Floyd Mayweather.
