He's just an all around dirty fighter. I can't stress that enough, he's just dirty. He's always been dirty, he's known for this. He's no boxer and I don't think that he'll be remembered as a great boxer, just a dirty, dirty fighter. He don't win the right way, he cheats to win and I don't consider that winning a boxing match, (much less) an undisputed middleweight title (match).

I gave it 110 and I feel like I won it. Bernard is a very tough man and I have to give him respect. He is a very tricky fighter and he's really tough to hit cleanly. But you have to work to get him. I thought the decision was fair because I outworked him. If Bernard wants to fight me again, we can do it. In the sport of boxing anything can happen.

I did a lot of things I don't normally do in that fight and it bothers me. There were a bunch of nerves when I first walked out there, it being for a championship and all. I won't give him so much space. I won't waste so many punches or chase him around.
