I'd like to fight welterweight and lightweight at the same time if I could.
I could do welterweight. For the right fight, I'll do welterweight. It would have to be a meaningful fight. A world title fight, or a big meaningful fight.
I could see myself going to lightweight, but I love welterweight.
Those welterweight guys, man, you definitely can feel their punches. They hit a lot harder. They pack a lot more power than a lightweight or a featherweight.
I try to fight like a lightweight.
In the 1950s, when I was hanging around Sullivan's Gym and the Gramercy Gym, there were fixed fights. Mob guys like Frankie Carbo and Blinky Palermo had taken over the sport; one lightweight champion loaned his title to others at least twice; the welterweight division was a slag heap.
The winner leaves undefeated and a lot of people will say they are the top guy at welterweight. I would definitely like a crack at that title, being the top guy at welterweight.
When I say I'm a true welterweight I'm talking about every fighter that has ever moved into the welterweight division.
My kid could move like a lightweight
I'm the former lightweight champion. I want to fight one of the top guys. I don't want to fight a guy who isn't ranked.
I would love to fight anybody at the welterweight limit with a belt.
Obviously I love writing with Katy [Pery], I feel like we're the same person when we write together. Even though we fight a lot, we fight over every line and we pull each other's hair and we cat-fight all the time, it's always worth it in the end.
I am a welterweight, so do I want to fight Mayweather or Pacquiao? To be honest, it has not entered my head.
I could fight with the living but I could not fight the dead. If there was some woman in London that Maxim loved, someone he wrote to, visited, dined with, slept with, I could fight her. We would stand on common ground. I should not be afraid. Anger and jealousy were things that could be conquered. One day the woman would grow old or tired or different, and Maxim would not love her anymore. But Rebecca would never grow old. Rebecca would always be the same. And she and I could not fight. She was to strong for me.
If I have a chance to make a larger amount of money in a legacy fight against the No. 1 welterweight in history, it makes sense for me to want that fight. You have a lot of pay-per-view money coming to this company. Why shouldn't the champion partake in a piece of that pie?
Pacquiao needs a fighter like me to sell. Our styles match up better than anyone else's styles in the welterweight division. It would be a great fight.
I don't cut weight, so it's no problem for me to fight at lightweight.
