If I lose, I'll walk away and never feel bad because I did all I could. There was nothing more to do.

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.

Ali always said I would be nothing without him, but who would he have been without me?

I had a job to do in the ring, and the businessmen around me had a job to do outside the ring, I did my job by beating up most of the guys they put in front of me and staying in shape, but the people I trusted didn't do their jobs.
