You have good days, you have bad days. But the main thing is to grow mentally.
Everybody is blessed with a certain talent, you have to know what your talent is maximize it and push it to the limit.
To be the best you have to work overtime.
Showing is better than telling.
I'm a firm believer that before you can go anywhere, you have to conquer the level that you are at, just like young kids do it today with video games, they have to finish one level to go to the next one. Conquer one level at the time, and only then you'll get where you want to go to.
A true champion can adapt to anything.
Just live every day like it's your last day and be the best person that you can be.
As long as you know you gave whatever you did 100% you're considered a winner in my book.
I know how I could beat myself: by not being disciplined, by slacking, by not dedicating myself to my craft, by not working hard, by not listening, by thinking I know it all - short like that.
I am the best. There is nobody better than me.
I come from a very rough background, and I'm saying that if you work hard and dedicate yourself that you can make it, too.
It's about being smart, taking your time, keeping your composure, just going out there and being the best that you can be
Sometimes, people say certain things about me that are negative, but that's no problem. I try to take their negative and turn it to a positive. That's why I like to surround myself with positive people.
I'm a boxer who believes that the object of the sport is to hit and not get hit.
Health is more important than anything.
I'm the best at talking trash I'm also the best at going out there and backing it up.
Your body is your temple. You do your body good, your body will do you good.
Any true champion can bounce back. That's what being a champion is: being able to deal with adversity and being able to bounce back.
Pressure... I love it.
I don't fold under pressure, great athletes perform better under pressure, so put pressure on me.
When people see what I have now, they have no idea of where I came from and how I didn't have anything growing up.
Ain't no boundaries, ain't no limits.
The ultimate goal is to always break records.
My spirituality is more private. I've got my own personal relationship with god. I know that there's a god because I was able to survive everything that I've been through - all of the tough times - and I'm still at the top of my game. With all the rumors and all the hate, I'm still strong, still happy, still blessed.
I think my dad, when he works with my older son, puts the same kind ofpressure on him that he put on me - that perfectionist pressure. And that can work in two ways: It can make you a perfectionist yourself, or it can eventually break you in the long run.
