My dad and uncles listened to a lot of rap. My dad is a big fan of LL Cool J. Driving in the car with him, we'd listen to Jay-Z and Nas. My sister listened to a lot of No Limit, so I listened to Master P. and Cash Money - Lil Wayne and Juvenile. They had jewelry and nice cars. I was drawn to them.

We have to keep winning and looking good and keep fighting the best competition out there.

It doesn't matter how many sit-ups you do, your work ethic. I know when I land that punch, and I'm on balance, they're going to feel it regardless of how strong their core is.

I want to be the undisputed champion of the world.

I want to stay active and busy. I don't just want to fight a no-name opponent. I want a decent name or a big name or a world champion, somebody who is going to challenge me. That's just it.

Shawn Porter is a good fighter, but he hasn't accomplished nearly as much as Danny Garcia has accomplished or beat the fighters who he has beat.

If I don't have headphones, I can't run. Nowadays, I listen to Drake, Future, and Boosie.

Terence Crawford being across the street - I can't promise it's going to happen this year, but it's going to happen.

Bundu is a very good fighter. He's experienced and technically sound, but he can be awkward.

There's a lot of fighters that pop up out of the blue that you never heard of. They just don't have the management or the promotion team or the spotlight, you know, to be seen. That's the ones you've gotta watch out for.

If Keith Thurman comes back, and he has a great fight and he shows what he's been showing in the fights with Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter, everyone is going to talk about Errol Spence vs. Keith Thurman.

I want to fight every opponent and take them out, no matter who it is. I'm here to prove that I'm the best in the division.

The Dallas rap scene is growing, and hopefully we get to a level like Houston - everybody supporting each other, building each other up to be great.

When I say we're on different side of the streets, it's true. Me and Terence Crawford are on different side of the streets.

At the end of the day, I feel like me and Keith Thurman is the fight to make. A lot of people bring up Terence Crawford since Keith Thurman's been inactive.

I still have to unify my division and basically become the undefeated welterweight champion of the world. I can't lose. It is more added pressure, but it does make me work harder and keeps me more focused.

Putting up a great performance against Lamont Peterson will skyrocket me. The goal is to become the No. 1 welterweight in the division, so if I keep beating these guys around me and then fight Keith Thurman, people will rate me as No. 1 because I've beat the top names, and he's been inactive.

I wanted to play for the Dallas Cowboys, and now I'm fighting in front of the Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones.

I got family in the U.K. on my dad's side of the family. My grandfather's brother moved to the U.K. from Jamaica. It's a pretty big family I'll have there.

I'm a boxing fan. I've seen Kell Brook fight. I'm not one of those boxers who says he doesn't watch other guys fight or follow the sport. I do.
