No one who isn't an extremist can understand the mind of an extremist.

People are going to say what they say. I know sometimes I say things; I offend people.

People see it [boxing] as a physical contact sport, but it's not. It's really a spiritual one of will against will. Who wants it the most? How much is he willing to take - and dish out - to get it? It's like fighting is 10 percent physical and 90 percent emotional.

Sometimes, the people we invest the most time in disappoint us the most.

What was most important was the knowledge [aspect] of the fight. I learned this early on and just told myself to "upgrade my mind." That's just what I wanted to do my whole life.

I don't understand why people would want to get rid of pigeons. They don't bother no one.

I know I have only myself to blame for all the problems I've had in my life.
