I believe in Allah and in peace. I don't try to move into white neighborhoods... I don’t want to marry a white woman. I was baptized when I was 12, but I didn’t know what I was doing. I’m not a Christian anymore. I know where I’m going and I know the truth and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want.

It's the lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believe in myself. He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life. I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I really was the greatest.

Ain't no reason for me to kill nobody in the ring, unless they deserve it.

The only limitations one has, are the ones they place on themselves

Oh! how the hours hasten to change into days, the days into months, the months into years, and those into life's annihilation!

When my title was taken away boxing died.

Islam religion has no color distinction, we are just Muslims.
