I don't think a man has to go around shouting and play-acting to prove he is something. And a real man don't go around putting other guys down, trampling their feelings in the dirt, making out they're nothing.

Champions aren't made in the ring, they are merely recognized there.

Life doesn't run away from nobody. Life runs at people.

Ali kept calling me ugly, but I never thought of myself as being any uglier than him, I have 11 babies, somebody thought I was cute.

Work is the only meanin' I've ever known. Like the man in the song says, I just gotta keep on keepin' on.

When I go out there, I have no pity on my brother. I am out there to win.

I don't want nothing comin' at me that I can't stop.
