I've spent most of my life in prison. I was a prisoner of my fear and my low self-esteem.

Am I complicated? Nah, I'm interesting. I just like having a good time.

I either had to concentrate on fighting, or I had to help my family. I chose my family. I love my mom; I love my family.

Boxing gave me a voice to express the anger I felt for where I came from.

Boxing was a way to express my anger. All of a sudden, I was expressing anger, and I was good at it. I was like a Jekyll and Hyde. Boxing helped me because I was fighting the anger out. I was knocking guys out.

I'm a happy guy. I just want to see people laugh and smile.
