I thought about it for a little bit. You know what? It does not matter. I did it. I beat him. I beat Ruiz.
I promise you I will be better in my next fight, ... I want to be a fighting champion, a great champion.
It's all right here. And heart and determination. I'm 37 years old and I feel like I'm 27. I'm getting better with age.
Look at this body, ... Do I look like I use steroids?
Dominick is a good fighter, and he was the only one who stepped up and was willing to fight me, ... I'm not looking past him. I wish the fight was tomorrow because I'm ready to go.
If I was on steroids, I would have put a lot of companies out of business that night,
I don't need a belt to make me. I make the belt, ... I feel great and that's all that matters. I'm still heavyweight champion of the world.
I represent boxing. I represent the old school. That's me.
I don't know nothing about the sport. Just tune in August 28th and y'all find out how much I know about the sport.
The only freak show I got is between my legs.
They can all get some. Remember this! I will do this to all y'all down here. Look at his face. I don't care if you're a flyweight, or your mamma weight! I will kick your ass!
I got tired of everyone being in my way, so I had to kick them out to have my privacy.
Look at this body...Do I look like I use steroids?
I didn't run from the situation. I didn't hide the ordeal from the reporters like the sissy baseball players. I fought it head-on... We dealt with it. It's over. And now we're moving on.
