This is the kind of exacting test, which motivates me to do even more in the gym. I know he is one of the best boxers of today. But Bud… I believe in my own abilities and I am sure that I will win on his own home turf. I want the world to listen carefully to the announcer when he mentions my name as the winner of the fight.
