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.
Amir Khan
My grandfather on my dad's side was the first in our family to settle in the U.K. He came from Pakistan on his own in the '60s and worked in a cotton mill in Bolton, earning enough to bring over the rest of his family. My dad, Shah, was only about eight when he came to this country. Like most immigrants, he has a fierce work ethic.
You never know what will happen in the future - I would never say 'no' to getting into MMA.
I used to eat what I want, on a junk diet, and used to think I could make my weight easy and kill myself over the last four or five days.
Mayweather does tease people all the time. He likes to get under your skin. That's what he's like.
The boxing world can be a very lonely one, and I'm so grateful every day to have Dad and my whole family watching my back. It would be unthinkable if I didn't have their support.
I want people talking about me as a great fighter - from being a prospect with the big pressure as soon as I turned professional, then going on to win the world title.
We're prizefighters. That's what we become. Boxing has one of the biggest purses in sport. And in the sporting field, we probably make the most money.
I've won the world title - what I've dreamt of since the age of eight.
Even though you think boxing is a contact sport, it teaches you not to fight on the street, to behave. It gives you discipline and self-control.
There are a lot of fighters with no family support, but your family are honest with you. Look at the types who were around Mike Tyson. They are not going to tell you when you are wrong; they'll just call you the champ.
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 come into fights against me and say this and that, but when they realise how quick and how hard I hit, their game plan disappears.
The thing is, I'm never scared. It's just in the blood, really. My family come from a warrior clan background, the Rajput tribe from the Punjab, and that could be one of the reasons. Going into fights just seems normal to me.
I don't want to get punched all my life.
I can only say that sometimes skin colour does make a difference.
If I hadn't gone towards boxing, I might have been one of those kids getting into trouble. A lot of my friends did. They were clever kids at school, but they just went down the wrong path.
I've always been a UFC fan, and I like McGregor and the way he promotes it.
I've come back from losses and won world titles.
I've been working a lot on my lateral movement, and angles - it's coming natural to me now - and on different techniques, keeping my hands right.
I came back from the Olympic Games, and straightaway, I'm this role model. So that means I can't mess around with my mates like I used to because, if I do, people are going to use it to knock me down.
I try to fix things between the Asian community and the English community. There are always going to be racial things there, not getting on with each other and stuff. I have tried to break that barrier.
I've been to so many dos and presentation dinners and TV shows. I've been among all the top stars - soap stars, people from music - it's been brilliant. But I've kept my feet on the ground.
I have a stake in a company called Super Fight League, which is an MMA company in India, and we have a lot of shows in Dubai, too.
I was very hyperactive when I was a kid, just misbehaving at school like most kids, and I would probably be 10 times worse at home.
Boxing's not going to retire me; I'll retire from boxing. That's where most people make mistakes. They normally stay in the game a bit too long.
You always want to fight the best.
I'm confident I can take the gold in Beijing.
Floyd Mayweather has fought the biggest names throughout his career and has earned the right to face whoever he chooses.
I want to thank Kotelnik for letting me have a shot at the title. I'm so confident I'm going to beat him. He thinks that me moving up a weight, I won't be as strong, but I'm very strong. I'm a hard-hitting fighter.
When you drop weight, the closer you come to the fight, the more your muscles tighten up.
Religion was very influential because when it got really bad, and you don't know who to turn to, but I turned to God and was praying and meditating, that really helped.
One thing for sure is that I am not going to attempt to knock Barrera out. My boxing ability and my speed are the attributes that will get me the win.
That's boxing - one punch can win a fight.
King chiller. That was me.
If I look at my career financially, I think it's one of the best careers any fighter's had.
I'm just a fighter.
People always want to see that, the young lion going to take the old lion out.
If I spend silly, it's going to look bad, in a way, because I do all this charity work as well.
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.
I know people didn't think I'd become a world champion - even people probably in my own camp, my own team, didn't think I'd become a world champion this quickly.
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.
Whose mother wants to see her son fight? It's very hard for her - but boxing is in my blood.
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.
I want to retire from boxing by the time I am 25 or 26 and be a legend by that age.
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.
It's dangerous to talk too much about future fights.
You're always just one punch away from getting hurt. But look, if it's going to happen, it's going to happen. I think I'm going to walk out of this sport of boxing when I think it's the right time.
I'm very experienced in four-round fights because of my amateur career, and I've got a high work rate.
As a kid, I was hyperactive and the naughty one in school. I wouldn't listen to anyone and thought I knew best. At home, I was always breaking things and annoying everyone.
