To experience the agony of defeat makes you stronger. It's like taking one step back and two steps forward. To experience the agony of defeat makes you appreciate the experience of winning. That's what makes a champion.

Opportunity knocks only once. You never know if you'll get another opportunity.

I got hit a lot. I'm glad I lived through it.

You can't do nothing but try if you still got it in your heart.

I know a lot of people think I'm dumb. Well, at least I ain't no educated fool.

I still am champion in my own right.

I'm happy 'bout life. Still trying. I ain't giving up on life.
