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 was always quiet and even timid.

There are more important things in life than boxing.

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.

I'm not a massive featherweight.

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.

I love going home to Belfast on weekend breaks from training.

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.
