The one thing I know, everyone respects the true person and everyone's not true with themselves.

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 don't want to be remembered. As long as my kids remember me, I'd rather be forgotten by everybody else.

I never saw my mother happy with me and proud of me for doing something: She only knew me as being a wild kid running the streets, coming home with new clothes that she knew I didn't pay for. I never got a chance to talk to her or know about her. Professionally, it has no effect, but it's crushing emotionally and personally.

When you're a great finisher, you'll become popular. Joe Louis was a great finisher.

Some people are faster than others; I'm just figuring it out later, that's all. I'm getting smart too late and old too soon.
