Every fighter who wins a belt trots out the same repetitive trite. "I want to fight the best. I want all the belts."
Then do the opposite.
Very few mean it.
When's the last time you hears a fighter declare ''I'm just going to fight journeymen and tomato cans for as long as I can, and if I'm chased by another belt holder I'll just lie and say they lowballed me in negotiations or something similar. I hope to fight just once a year, and will only take a risk if it's a superstar fight where I get paid millions to go round in a glorified sparring session. Thank you and f^*k the fans."
