Boxer

My parents gave everything for me and I want now to keep winning to provide for them.

When I defeated Soto Karass, I asked for a fight against Paul Malignaggi. A few months went by, and I saw that Golden Boy Promotions wanted to do a fight between Malignaggi and Shane Mosley. The truth is that it made me angry, but that's the way things are sometimes in the world of boxing.

I won my very first fight by knockout in the first round. The trainer at the time was in love with me and he said I could make a career out of boxing. So I started boxing for the barrios or neighborhood championship.

I have been told many times that I have a Mexican fighting style and I hope to develop that more as I train in Mexico.

I have that one-punch KO power in both hands but I won't only be going for the head. Most of Floyd's opponents have done that but his defence is so good.

I love football and played when I was a little kid. I was good but I'm not sure I was good enough to be professional.

I thought at times that I was too aggressive in the first fight and I was able to let Mayweather move around a little bit too much. I will be much more careful in the ring for the rematch. I won't load up so much, but instead fight fresher and with more distance.

I know Mayweather now, his style, what he brings to the table.

My dad is a gaucho. He wakes in the middle of the night and rides a horse for a living.

I want to be welterweight champion.

I just love hunting.

I want to be one of the elite fighters in the division.

I've crossed paths with lions. I keep going forward and leave it in God's hands.

I don't underestimate anybody and I think Morales is capable of giving a good fight.

I didn't really watch any fighters because we didn't have a TV. Of course, I knew about Carlos Monzon because he is such a huge icon in my province and in my state, but I can honestly say I don't get any instincts from other fighters.

Khan was one of the biggest fights of my career and also one of the toughest in my life. He's a very good boxer.

Floyd's defense is very good, and at times it is hard to hit him. That's why I want to knock him out.

I have great memories of growing up on a farm when I was young. I still ride horses, and I would love to own my own piece of land one day.

I am a fighter and I come to fight.

Sergio Martinez is doing his job and I'm trying to do my part, and we want to be able to get some spotlight in Argentina.
