I'm trying to figure things out in the world. No one knows what this life thing is all about - there's no manual. Just trying to figure it out.

Even though I heard him say he doesn't believe, cuz' that's why from watching Ali gave me the great deal of confidence and deep-down inner belief to believe there's no man fighting that could beat me.

I ain't the same person I was when I bit that guy's ear off.

I don't think boxing took more from me then I got in return. It gave me everything that I took from it. It was all fair.

Box gap is not a thing. If you need to back up to a mirror and bend over to find out how you look, you are playing to the wrong audience.

I had it in my mind: to be confident, and to keep saying that until the confidence appeared. But I took it too far. Confidence did help make me champion, but, man, I took it to a whole different level. I was a megalomaniac. I was not humble and it eventually came back on me. So I want my kids to know, keep humbleness and kindness in their hearts. It will prevail.

The drug dealers, they sympathize with me. They see me as some sort of pathetic character.
