Canelo Alvarez

There might well have been an Irish great-great-grandfather of mine back then in the 1800s.

If I lift any weights, I do it more for explosion, but I really use my body weight to build up muscle and strength.

Angulo presents a difficult challenge because he's a fighter who can punch and take a great punch.

I want to challenge the best, and I'm ready.

My public in Guadalajara and the people from Guadalajara, they've supported me since day one.

You always try to fight someone from another country. But having said that, the public knows, everybody knows, when there's two Mexicans in the ring, there will be a war.

Liam Smith was a resilient fighter. He was tough, has a lot of heart. He thinks before he attacks.

Every fight brings out something different in me, and it will be no different in this one. I have learned and gained from all of those experiences. And as I've often said, the public hasn't seen the best of me yet. I need someone like Mayweather to bring that out of me.

I'm prepared for Amir Khan moving swiftly - or for whatever style he comes out using. I prepared with sparring, in the style similar to what he uses.

I was taunted because I was different.

I like to stand right in front of my opponent. I think it makes for an exciting fight.

I want to be like a Muhammad Ali, like a Julio Cesar Chavez. So when people talk about boxing, they have to remember Canelo.
