Changing your nature is the hardest thing to do. But I discovered that you can be who you choose to be.

In boxing, I had a lot of fear. Fear was good. But, for the first time, in the bout with Muhammad Ali, I didn't have any fear. I thought, "This is easy. This is what I've been waiting for". No fear at all. No nervousness. And I lost.

I was a tiger, a good fighter, in good shape, but I was always nervous before boxing matches.

You never help others by allowing them to getaway with giving less than their best efforts.

We, too, need to be patient, especially when it comes to reaching new goals.

Before a fight between Riddick Bowe and Hector Gonzales: Generally when there's a lot of smoke . . . there's just a whole lot more smoke.

People trust me. I sell sincerity.
