I get spotted quite a bit walking about the streets in Belfast and it's okay, I don't mind it, they come up and shake your hand.
I'll respect any man that walks into the ring but people like Eddie Hearn and Joe Gallagher who've never taken a slap in the mouth in their lives shouldn't be disrespectful towards me and other fighters.
If you worry about hurting your opponent you are probably in the wrong game, because it can happen. I wouldn't wish ill on anyone. I wanted to knock him out, not hurt him badly.
In boxing we're allowed to come togethwe. Protestants and Catholics, the north and south, everyone. I'm in an Irish vest, even on a mural in Tiger's Bay, because boxing brings the communities together.
In Tiger's Bay I saw trouble I shouldn't have seen. But 95% of the people there are good and they're coming out to support me - just like in New Lodge which is the opposition or whatever you want to call it.
I've always been the same since I was a kid, maybe it was the way I was brought up, but I've never liked arrogant people.
I was seven or eight and a kid who was easily picked on. Not bullied but other kids would've told me what to do in the streets. I was very shy. I used to put my head down.
I just want to win a world title - that's the main objective and whether it happens at Windsor or whether it happens in America it doesn't matter.
There was nothing special about me; there are boxers in Belfast who are more skilled but I had a bit between my teeth that drives me on.
It's good to go and get photographs taken with people who come out and support you. I don't mind that, having a chat and shaking people's hands.
He still works in the local leisure centre and he's the union rep and a shop steward. Dad is very grounded. He's not bumptious or brash.
I was a quiet kid on the streets. The loudmouths would push me around but when I was boxing, I was beating them up and it felt good.
