I'd like to live to a hundred.

I was the first one in the gym, and the last one to leave.

You know I hate fighting. If I knew how to make a living some other way, I would.

It all started to come together when I realized that boxing was how I was going to succeed in life.

Scatter abroad what you have already amassed rather than pile up new wealth.

Success is not achieved by winning all the time. Real success comes when we rise after we fall.

They say actually every time I enter the ring, in a way, I`m going to the war. They say to me daily, you are a prized fighter, what`s the difference? And I like to say to those critics of the press and the others that there is one hell of a lot of difference in fighting in a ring and going to war in Vietnam.
