And they're tough as weeds."- Merchant "Mayorga is a rude, crude dude in the ring, as well as outside. In a sense, what we have here is class warfare with boxing gloves. Mayorga is a street fighter from a street that didn't have electricity until he financed it with some of his earnings. His most prominent physical asset, he keeps reminding us, is his cajones. Opposite him tonight is a handsome fighter with a gold medal, a beautiful wife, vast wealth including a 74 foot yacht. Mayorga looks at him and thinks he's seeing a hated slumlord, and Oscar is coming to collect the rent."- Merchant

I’m just going – I’m just – I’ve got a great promoter. I mean, I have a great promoter. He’s always taken care of me from the beginning of my career. Bob has, you know, I would never forget him. He’s always bought me the best gifts and he bought me the finer things as his fighter. And of all of his fighters, I think, Bob has bought me probably the nicest things. I would never forget him. The beginning of my career, he bought me a Lexus, Range Rovers, all the diamond watches when no other fighters had this. When no other young fighters had this. I had Ferraris, and Bentleys, and this fighter’s been jealous. Now my promoter up there is one of the greatest promoters that ever lived. Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Bob Arum 2006
