Everybody in boxing probably makes out well except for the fighter.

Without discipline, no matter how good you are, you are nothing! One day, and I might not be around; you're going to meet a tough guy who takes your best shot. He'll keep coming because he's tough. Don't get discouraged. That's when the discipline comes in.

Basically I don't care what people think of me. I'm not in the communications business.

I feel bad about my outlook, how I feel about people and society, and that I'll never be part of society the way I should.

I am the most ruthless, brutal champion ever. There is no one who can match me. I want your heart. I want to eat your children.

I've been a prima-dona. I was taken care of since I was 13. That's why I am the way I am today. I was spoiled, like a brat. I had anything I wanted. That's crazy to be that way all your life. Everybody's taking care of you, but manipulating you at the same time. Very few people have a life like that. Most people have to work like slaves their whole lives. I've never had a job in my life. What I know how to do is hurt big, tough men - in the street and off.

You can't stay married in a situation where you are afraid to go to sleep in case your wife might cut your throat.
