Any man can do what he has to do. But doing it like you love it? That is what takes it to a whole different level. A champion does it like he loves it, even when he doesn't.

Everyone has a plan 'till they get punched in the mouth.

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.

I don't know, man, I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian.

You have to feel comfortable being uncomfortable. I'm always comfortable being uncomfortable. And to be comfortable being uncomfortable, I have to hone my discipline, which to me is doing what I have to do, but also doing it like I love it.

Me? I see an old, broke-ass black guy taking care of a bunch of kids, living life, taking them to school, and all that stuff, who's asking himself: What the hell is this? But I wouldn't give it up for the world because I love my wife. I never expected to have a life like this. No chaos... no confusion... no lawsuits... no violence... no going to jail.

I know I'm going to blow one day. My life is doomed the way it is. I have no future.
