Age started boxing: 20 years old
First boxing memory: That this sport was tough. It’s very difficult and it takes some getting used to. It’s something you develop over time
Inspiration: Not having what I used to – my belt
Favourite all-time fighter: I don’t have one
Best fight you’ve seen: The first one between [Diego] Corrales and [Jose Luis] Castillo. There are bigger name fighters but they were both at their peak and so evenly matched
Pre-fight meal: I eat whatever’s available. I don’t have a set meal
What do you do to relax: I’m a low-key guy. I just watch TV, sleep and chill out
Pre-fight superstition: Superstitions are for fools
What training (if any) do you do between fights: I’m always fighting, so I always keep busy [in the gym]. I’m not a young man – I started boxing late and ever since I’ve been in a hurry
Typical breakfast: Nothing on a regular basis
Toughest part of being a boxer: Getting robbed. You go out and do the work and beat the guy down only for them to give the decision to the next guy
Favourite music: Reggae
Last book you read: The Bible
Favourite film: There’s Something About Mary
What car do you drive: A Hummer
Where do you train: At a few different places. I train in Miami – at Fightclub and at a gym called Knockout
Training routine: I hit the heavy bag, speed bag, jump rope, do sit-ups and do roadwork. I do a lot of sparring as well
Toughest man faced: Bernard Hopkins
What supplements do you take: Just regular vitamins and GNC
What would you be if you weren’t a boxer: What I wanted to be, I can’t be, because I’m not a good singer. That dream was shortlived!
Last place you went on holiday: Barbados
Best boxer in the sport today: Either myself or Floyd Mayweather
Favourite football team: The Miami Dolphins, because that’s where I live, and the Reggae Boys of Jamaica, because that’s where I’m from
ENJOY!
