Ali and I have become friends over the years. I was on a plane with him one time when he was the champion.

I can tell jokes. I can talk to the audience. I can relax. I can change my songs whenever I want. I can change the tempos. I can change the mood, because I'm in charge.

I only eat one meal a day. Lunch, not dinner.

It's obvious that they're going to want Ali's daughter and Frazier's daughter to fight it out.

Joe Louis was one of my first heroes.

I'm a performer. We don't retire.

Rocky Marciano had such guts and heart. He was something special.
