Canelo wants to test himself and see if he is among the elite fighters. This is a golden opportunity for me, so I'm very, very happy.

Canelo is a good young fighter, but he probably shouldn't be in the ring with me. It should have been somebody else. Hopefully he can learn from it and become a better fighter. He seems like a good young kid.

I think my experience is going to make a difference, but I also think that my speed and power are going to make a bigger difference.

The motivation is fighting the right fight. The type of fight I know I can fight. That's the motivation and showing the people the way Sugar Shane really fights.

The fight I want is against Floyd Mayweather. He is the best out there.

I don't know if it is really a crossroads fight.

I think my hitting power is stronger when I'm lighter and faster.

I'm thrilled to be fighting Fernando Vargas and once again proving that I'm the superior fighter. To me, there was no controversy about our first fight because one look at his face showed who the winner was. I stopped him once, and I'll do it again.

I'm going to be where I'm going to be at.

It sounds good, if a rematch is there. We'll have to sit down and talk about it. I wouldn't have any problems doing it.
