Athlete

I'm just a little-big kid with a dream.

I'm willing to die in the ring.

I'm not trying to be with six-pack abs and big muscles and all that. None of that, you know.

My dad would always give me a Snickers before a fight. It gives me energy. It gives me everything I need to get the win.

I respect Muhammad Ali... he was the greatest, he was the best.

Don't even bring Drake around me!

A lot of fighters underestimate me. And what do you know? They end up being on the canvas.

That's what we're gonna do, baby, bring the titles back to Mexico.

I feel unfinished business with the WBO title because that was my first loss when I went to New Zealand with Joseph Parker.

A lot of people have underestimated me and I have been a problem for them inside the ring.

If I win, it sends out a powerful message about the strength of Mexican people.

In China, they treated me really well, they like me a lot. The first few times they laughed when I took my shirt off, but when they saw me throw my punches and saw my opponent on the floor, they came over to my side and clapped.

Dreams are dreams and reality is reality. We have to make the dreams happen.

I was six years old when I first went into a gym.

People who say I'm not focused, they're crazy.

People that I fight, they can tell you that I'm different and I'm hard to get to.

It doesn't matter how you look. As long as you train hard, you focus and you're hungry, and that drive is in you to follow your dreams, everything is possible.

I've been an underdog my whole life with the shape that I have and the way that I look. But once I get in the ring it's a whole different ball game.

We all have good days and bad days.

I love The Rock.
