"Emanuel Steward turned me pro and he was the best trainer any man ever had, he taught me everything I know about boxing and about life. He was like a father to me. I was always a tall, lanky fighter and he taught me how to keep a man at distance, to use my long reach, so I get the time to do what I wanted to do.

With my style of fighting, sometimes it's hard to predict what I am going to do. My left jab was so strong that I didn't have to be an inside fighter. Emmanuel was a tactical man, he checked out everything and made sure I was in perfect condition every time I was there. He was just straight up boxing.

For a big fight, there would be seven weeks hard training and we would spar eight to 10 rounds a day. I learned so much, like the things you have to watch out for. I was winning by knockout almost every time, but it didn't really surprise me. I had the punch, but I was underestimated because I was skinny. They figured they could take advantage of me and that played into my hands in the early part of my career."

'Gee, where would I have been if it weren't for boxing - possibly still a day laborer wondering when the next check was coming in. Now I'm a boxer wondering the same. But I'm not as worried in this business as I might have been in some other. Yes, it's been good to me and it's been good to a lot of people.'

Terence Crawford will face Dmitry Bivol in his next fight according to reports.

“I have watched Marciano fight and I have taken him apart like a watchmaker takes a watch apart. Marciano won’t be able to solve my defensive style, he can’t and won’t hit me” Marciano will miss more punches than he has ever before because I have the right style to beat him. Marciano lacks defense and I will pour it on when he misses”
