Honestly, the ladies who come in here generally work a little harder than the guys. Boxing is a man's world. The ladies who come in here want to show they belong, so their habits are generally more intense.

This is huge for me; very exciting,.. I'm absolutely thrilled for the opportunity to fight this guy, and possibly get a world ranking after I beat him. This is what I've been waiting for, and what I've been working for, since the day I started boxing, and I'm very ready for it. My trainers (Max Garcia and Don Familton) have done their job. My manager (Kathy Garcia) has done her job. Now it's my turn. It's my time to shine.

Football was over and I still wanted to hit somebody. I'm really enjoying boxing.

Christmas and the day before Christmas were the hardest. Then Boxing Day the freezing level started to come down [the mountain] a little bit. And after that, it just came down and down, and here we are.

I'm usually catching up on things I should have been doing while I was filming - a pile of mail and bills. I like reading. I like watching a lot of sports on TV - football, boxing. I like cricket a lot. I try to get down to Lords to watch Yorkshire if they're playing down there.

We are proud to host an event of this magnitude. This is not only great for the St. Pete Times Forum, but for Tampa Bay and the state of Florida. The velocity at which tickets are selling speaks volumes about boxing and its future in the Bay area.

It's just a maturity,.. I felt like it was time to rededicate myself. I'm a big fan of classic boxing and when people think of me 100 years from now, I hope they say I really changed my career around to reach greatness.

I always tell my people in the gym I'm getting old. The legs are the oldest thing on me. Once your knees go it's a struggle. I'm not able to move as much anymore. My whole game plan, my whole boxing career has been around moving and getting out of the way. I was not a person who catches a lot of punches. I slip more punches than getting hit. I had to get away from that and sit down.

It came down to our defense. We didn't stop them. It wasn't them; it was everything we weren't doing -- hustling back, boxing out, the things that we can control.

I think our main focus of these next few games is really defending people and boxing out. I think whoever wins the battle of the boards will come up with two victories, either way.

We really picked it up in the second half. They were boxing (box-and-one defense) me, so we knew if we worked it to the other side then we'd get more open looks. Plus, we did a better job of getting back on defense. I guess we just needed that good holler to get us back in the game.

When I decided to give boxing all my focus, this is the reason I did it. I'm more ready for this than anything I've done in my life. Anybody can spend their entire career in the shallow end of the pool but I decided I want to get in the deep end.

That was my amateur background. I fought about 55 fights and took a year off before deciding I wanted to try and make a living at boxing.

So of course I found that 'Goth' tag very limiting and, rightly so, I didn't go along with it. Why would I go along with having two arms and a leg cut off? Why would I allow myself to be like Boxing Helena?

A boxing match is like a cowboy movie. There's got to be good guys and there's got to be bad guys. And that's what people pay for -- to see the bad guys get beat.

I felt we played well defensively. It's better to be known as a good defensive team and I felt we did a good job of boxing out tonight.

I guess the downside to some of these movies is that they associate boxing with thugs and uneducated boneheads. I go about my business as a professional athlete. I train twice a day, six days a week, have my fights and the rest of the time I spend with my family and friends.

We could have done a better job of boxing out, screening them and being more physical with them. But they're a good team.
