You just don't heal that easy unless you're young.

Boxing is the ultimate challenge. There's nothing that can compare to testing yourself the way you do every time you step in the ring.

I'm a competitor and a very proud man. If a guy beats me once, he'll have to do it again to make me believe him.

They say that I'm stubborn, and my wife says that, too, but it's paid off so far.

When I'm not in training. I'll walk around the streets at 153, but it's not solid; it's my socializing weight.

To be honest, I don't know. I started one [book] back in 1982 or '83 when I first retired. But I was only 25 or 26 and not ready to write my memoirs.

I only wish that I had had the courage and the knowledge to have gotten that out of my system, out of my mind or my heart years earlier. But there is no book, there is no manual to tell you how to deal with sexual abuse.
