“My coach Greg Jackson always tells me, ‘Jon, being the greatest of all time and the most dominant champion is cool and all, but you have to set records that will never be broken. Look at yourself as that guy because you are that guy, but you have to earn it. You have to live up to it, and it’s going to take a lot of hard work to get there.’ That’s why I always set high goals for myself that has nothing to do with breaking anyone else’s record but setting my own records.”
