In boxing, you don't know what's going to happen. In wrestling, it's already prearranged.

Bounty hunters these days - because everything is so sophisticated with computers and surveillance, it doesn't have to be a one-man-army-type guy who goes in and kicks a door down.

By the end of the shoot [of Wrestler], my trainer was pushing me up three flights of stairs to my house and holding my arm like I was an old cripple. I had three MRIs in the first two months of working on the film. I felt like it really was over by the time we started shooting the movie.

I probably did a dozen plays, like Off-Off-Broadway stuff.

I never look backwards. I have always been an athlete. I boxed before I acted.

A reputation is really hard to live down.

Wrestling and boxing is like Ping-Pong and rugby. There's no connection.
