Arthur LydiardI'm not being used to create the trickle down effect in racquetball, unlike Tiger Woods being used to create such effect in golf.

Ricky HattonBecoming world champion is something I have worked at for my entire career. It doesn't matter to me that my first title shot is at a different weight.

I've still got a lot of work to do, a lot of unfinished business at middleweight.

No, I'm Alexander, he's no Alexander. I'm the best ever! There's never been anybody as ruthless! I'm Sonny Liston, I'm Jack Dempsey. There's no one like me. I'm from their cloth. There's no one that can match me. My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want your heart! I want to eat his children! Praise be to Allah!
Mike TysonI always had a lot of responsibilities. I just didn't take them. I just decided to take care of my responsibilities, live up to them. That's a pretty interesting job. It's harder than being heavyweight champion of the world.
