He said recently that he was fighting with a YouTuber to make money. He said, "He's fighting with a YouTuber just to make money. That's not how I fight.
"To fight an easy opponent to make a buck or to fight a great fighter to build your legacy. It's something different.
"I can easily defeat an easy opponent or non boxers.
"It is easy to pick an easy win. But I choose the best because I want more to my legacy.
"It's a challenge because he is taller than I am. We have a strategy we can use against a southernpaw.
"I know that he is always coming in and that he wants to fight toe to toe so that's okay."
