I could never stand big-mouthed types. I had problems with that at high school. I’ve still got the scars on my fists from the teeth of the guys I hit so that they’d finally shut up. I came from England to Canada, of course, and was often ridiculed because I had a strange accent. I was expelled from school and it was a long time before I could control myself. But the impulse remained: a punch in the mouth to get some peace and quiet.

When I was fighting Tyrell Biggs, Tyson was telling me at ringside to hit him to the ribs. We always had a mutual respect for each other since we sparred those early times. We got that over with.

I cannot fight everyone at once. I have to take one at a time.

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

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

I just want to complete my legacy.

You can just fight one man at a time.
