There are still a lot of Mike Tyson fans out there, and a lot of disbelievers in the first fight, and they want to see us fight again. I am the emperor. If he wants to fight, I am here. If he does not, I understand.

During the past twenty-three years, I have set a number of goals for myself and I’m proud to say that these goals have been achieved.

The mission I set out on in the beginning - to become heavyweight champion of the world, undisputed, lineal champion - you could say that mission is complete.

The fact is that Mike Tyson bit through my trousers and took a significant piece of flesh out of my thigh.

I am proud to be in Los Angeles. I have a lot of fans that love me here. When you talk about the Meccas of boxing - Las Vegas, New York - now you have to talk about Los Angeles.

People want to see me back in the ring. I think it is more of a drag lying around on the beach.

After about 25 fights you don't always have to keep going to the bathroom before the fight.
