I'd like to live to a hundred.

I say get an education. Become an electrician, a mechanic, a doctor, a lawyer, anything but a fighter. In this trade, it's the managers that make the money and last the longest.

What I've found is that the religion that matters, the real religion is love.

My trainer don't tell me nothing between rounds. I don't allow him to. I fight the fight. All I want to know is did I win the round. It's too late for advice.

It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am.

I always bring out the best in men I fight, but Joe Frazier, I'll tell the world right now, brings out the best in me. I'm gonna tell ya, that's one helluva man, and God bless him

I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'
