I get up in the morning looking for an adventure.

The boxing promotion part is really interesting, because I got the chance to do something with my sons. They carry their own weight, and I get a chance to listen to them and see what they have on their minds. I don\'t have to hand out things to do, and now they have things for me to do. It\'s an amazing privilege to get the opportunity to work with your children.
When I found Jesus Christ, I learned to be a better athlete. I didn\'t have to go out there and knock them out in the first round. I\'ve learned to be patient, skillful in the ring. At the same time, I wanted to prove to other boxers that you can take off this killer instinct stuff, you can be a great athlete, a great boxer, and love your brother.
Its very important that people know that I really enjoy everything that has happened to me. And I tell my kids... youre not going to be the tallest, fastest, prettiest, the best track runner, but you can be the nicest human being that someone has ever met in their life. And I just want to leave that legacy that being nice is a true treasure.
You may not realize initially how many other opportunities are wrapped up inside the first one. After you go through the first door, you\'ll then discover more doors automatically opening behind that one. One door leads you to another door, which leads to another door, and so one. It\'s like ten other boxes packed inside one box. The initial door that God opens is your access to more opportunities. But you must be willing to walk through the first one to get to the other good things God has for you.
