To build my legacy and be that person I want to be, this is what it's going to take: to get on the road and travel. Let's do it that way.

When you have a fighter willing to do that, when he is seriously hurt and in pain but still fights, you've got a dangerous man on your hands.

At the end of the day, I am going for all the belts, so I am going to have to go through all of them. And I would live to fight the U.K. guys - even in the U.K.

It's a great feeling to be the WBC champ of the world, but there's more to gain from this.
Deontay Wilder -
I like to have fun in the ring, but I knock them out.
Deontay Wilder -
This is the hardest part for me. Just the waiting - the waiting to fight. The work has all been done, and you just have to wait.
Deontay Wilder -
There comes a time when you have to put forth the action and actually see whether you're really just talking to promote yourself, just to sell yourself, or to build your confidence or build confidence around you... or are you the real deal?
Deontay Wilder -
I don't see myself being in the sport a very long period of time, so I want to fight as much as possible.

I definitely got into a lot of fights when I was a kid. I never understood it. I was one of those quiet kids. I never picked with no one.
Deontay Wilder -
I never want to hurt no one to the point so they can't go back to their children.
Deontay Wilder -
I just love boxing. I'm in love with the sport.
Deontay Wilder -
I can be a tennis player, a golf player, and even a soccer player.

Once I knock Szpilka out, I want all the Polish fans to come on the 'Bronze Bomber' train as I bring the heavyweight division back to the top.
Deontay Wilder -
I was raised by both parents up to 17. We had a good family. We had a middle class family, good teaching and good surroundings, raised by the church, where I went every week whether I wanted to or not.

Everybody has their due season. And it's all about what you do in your season.

I am going to get world-wide recognition from whoever wants it, and whoever wants to challenge me.

God definitely blessed me with power. I still don't know the limits of my own power.
Deontay Wilder -
Boxing is my true calling. I've found my purpose in life.
Deontay Wilder -
When I went to college, I went to a junior college. I wanted to go to the University of Alabama but had to go to junior college first to get my GPA up. I did a half-year of junior college, then dropped out and had my daughter. College was always an opportunity to go back. But she, my daughter, was my support. I gave up everything for her.

I don't have any doubt in my mind: I could knock out any man in the heavyweight division.
Deontay Wilder -
Whether somebody think badly of me, whether somebody don't feel that I should be doing this or I should be doing that way, I don't really care. Whether they think that my fatigue is being laid, legs are skinny, I don't care.
Deontay Wilder -
When I was up in college, I had a friend, and he was the only guy who knew I wasn't going to be able to attend school no more because I had a child on the way. I remember we was right at the lunch table. I was like, 'Man, I should start boxing.' I felt like every fighter that's on TV made a lot of money. I was like, 'You gotta make a lot of money.'
Deontay Wilder -
I've been talking about unifying the division for a long time.
