'I don't believe in having sex before a fight, as the best thing before a competition is to have a good night's sleep, and if you sleep well you fight well. If you have sex you get all excited and don't sleep well - you know? If you go out to the clubs and look for somebody before a fight that's bad, but if you have a partner and you are at home, then it's not so bad and you will fight better.
I sacrificed a lot of good parties and I had to train and miss holidays when everybody else would go and I had to train for fights instead.'
