All the bad press I was getting puts you on a downer, so really, you come to a stage where you start hating yourself, in a way, because you're not in control.
Kell Brook was saying he wants to forget about Amir Khan; he wants to fight Pacquiao and Mayweather. These guys don't know who Kell Brook is.
If I spend silly, it's going to look bad, in a way, because I do all this charity work as well.
If I get a bit big-headed, I get a good clip round the ear from my family and friends. I'm still the same person.
You need to have a very strong relationship with your coaches. For me, Freddie Roach is like a father figure.
I look out there, and I see that Floyd Mayweather stands head and shoulders above everyone else. He's another fighter I would like to base myself on because he's got incredible fast hands and feet. He's flashy but, man, is he good.
Floyd Mayweather has fought the biggest names throughout his career and has earned the right to face whoever he chooses.
I'm an orthodox fighter, relaxed, fast, and powerful. And I've got good footwork.
I have the skills to box and not get into a war. I've been getting punishment I shouldn't be taking because, sometimes, I'm too brave for my own good. When I've got good footwork and movement, I should use them.
My main priorities were to fight for Britain. Not a lot of Asians get selected for this country at anything, and it's a great achievement.
There were no Asian lads boxing when I started.
Organic food is the best for you, and I'm eating the best, a lot of fresh vegetables. I also keep myself hydrated. It's all made a big difference to my performance in the gym.
I used to have Lamborghinis, Ferraris parked up outside the house - just parked there with no one driving them! Now I'm much wiser, and I only have one car that I drive. What's the point of having three cars just parked up when you don't need them?
People forget that boxing is the art of self-defence - ideally, hit and not be hit - and maybe we should all think about that a bit more.
When you drop weight, the closer you come to the fight, the more your muscles tighten up.
