"Everybody showed up to dance around, but I will show all these guys what this old man can do. I'm going to keep going. I'm going to keep fighting, and I'm going to get that undisputed bantamweight title. That's the only thing I have not done. I believe I have a great game plan going into this fight. I would get this one, and then Takuma Inoue (WBA champion), and then whoever else, and then Jason Moloney or whoever gets the IBF crown).
