In the school of boxing that I come from, that's frowned upon, giving up free shots, cos we know what those kinda shots do to a man's career, regardless of whether it shows up now, or shows up when you least need it. It takes a toll.

I don't rest on my laurels and start getting lazy. It makes me just wanna keep working.

I don't abuse my body, I've been off 10 months, I still train and I'm always thinking about boxing, so I felt like I would be fine and I just wanted to challenge myself against another top caliber fighter.

This fight should be dubbed, 'No Excuses.' If Carl Froch beats me, there won't be any excuses. I beat Carl Froch, there shouldn't be any excuses. No judges, no referees, no nothing. May the best man win.

The way my father raised me, we don't pat ourselves on the back. We don't call ourselves great, we let other people do that.
Andre Ward
Do the work and then let the rest speak for itself and know that it feels personal, I knew it for me when I was younger. It all feels so personal, but if it's for you, it's for you. And if it's not, that's okay because the other door will open. The right door will open.
Andre Ward
That's what makes a fighter. I got dropped and I got back up, and I found a way to get the win.
Andre Ward
I'm not going to say that I'm the best, we respect our champions. Floyd's been doing this a lot longer than me, he's been a lot of mega fights and I won't dare say that I'm better than Floyd Mayweather.
Andre Ward
I think Bute would have to face off with the Super Six Champion to prove that he's the best Super Middleweight. You come out of a tournament like this on top, that demands a lot of respect and carries a lot of weight.
Andre Ward
He's built up to be invincible and no man is invincible, any man can be knocked out.
Andre Ward
It's one thing to have an eye for the sport, and it's another to have a feel for the sport. He has both.
Andre Ward
I told myself that I'll do everything within my power to never let that happen again.
Andre Ward
Every fighter is my toughest challenge to date. After I get done with one fight, the next challenge is the toughest.
Andre Ward
I think he takes a good shot, I take a good shot too, but taking too many shots is not good for any fighter. And it's not really a reputation you want.
