Age started boxing: eight.
First boxing memory: Watching Roberto Duran and Felix Trinidad fight on television.
Inspiration: My country – to put the Dominican Republic on the boxing map – and my children [two boys].
Favourite all-time fighter: There are so many. Sugar Ray Leonard and Floyd Mayweather are just two.
Best fight you’ve seen: Leonard-Duran I.
Pre-fight meal: Pasta, chicken soup, anything I can get my hands on.
What do you do to relax: I play on a PlayStation.
Pre-fight superstition: None. I do pray to God before every fight.
What training (if any) do you do between fights: I play baseball.
Typical breakfast: Plantains, eggs, avocados, orange juice – I eat a lot.
Toughest part of being a boxer: The gym work. It’s much easier to fight. That’s why it is said that fights are won in the gym.
Favourite music: Reggae, Rap – I like all types.
Last book you read: How to Express Yourself in Public.
Favourite film: Rocky – the whole series. Once I watched the whole lot in a single day.
What car do you drive: Mercedes SL500.
Where do you train: Gleason’s Gym, Brooklyn, New York, or Gold’s Gym, Las Vegas.
Training routine: Running in the mornings. In the gym I do skipping, shadow boxing to warm up and then sparring. I also have a strength and conditioning coach.
Toughest man faced: Terdsak Jandaeng from Thailand. He was very strong and took everything I threw at him [White Plains, New York, August 2005 – Guzman won on points over 12 in a featherweight eliminator for Scott Harrison].
Supplements, if any: Amino acids, protein.
What would you be if you were not a boxer: Probably a baseball trainer or something to do with sports.
Last place you went on holiday: Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (he lives in New York).
Best boxer in the sport today: It’s hard to say because there is no Christ in boxing. Everyone can be beaten. But I’d probably say Floyd Mayweather.
Favourite football team: I don’t like soccer or American football.
ENJOY!!!!
