Canelo's a different breed. A lot of people think because of the way I made Canelo look, they're going to be able to do the same thing, but that's not true. He's a strong fighter.
Canelo has done a great job of being a champion so I have to take my hat off to Canelo. GGG has done so, as well.
For Canelo to call me boring, I mean, is he serious with that? I mean, I'm boring but Rocky Fielding is really exciting. Yeah, sure Canelo. Liam Smith was so exciting. Everybody couldn't wait for that.
We are fighting tough guys to get it on whereas Canelo and GGG have been cherry-picking. They can do that with the profile they have. It's just business. I'm not upset about it because my time will come when I walk in with one belt and walk out with four.
I don't got time to sit and wait for guys like Canelo.
Andre Ward got the chance to fight Sergey Kovalev twice. Triple G and Canelo are fighting again. People are getting paid to play king of the hill again.
Look at me: The guys I fight, they're in their primes. Canelo is out there fighting guys on their way out.
I may not be fighting the most popular guys like Canelo or GGG. But I am fighting real fighters, tough guys who want to prove that they belong and be world champions.
I will not turn down a Canelo fight. I won't sell myself short, but I will not turn down a Canelo fight.
My job is to keep winning, getting in the ring with the likes of, of course Canelo, GGG. I'd like to put my skills and talent against these guys.
I think Ben Getty would have been a tremendous fan of Canelo Alvarez.
Seeing guys like Canelo helps me get better because they are already champions and I want to become champion. Having role models like that helps me a lot.
I get motivated by the fact people are following me, that they want a photo or say 'vamos' or 'Canelo.'
I don't need any more motivation. I'm fighting Canelo Alvarez. If that can't get me motivated, then I'm in the wrong sport.
