I'm a Muslim, but do you think Jesus would love me? I think Jesus would have a drink with me and discuss why are you acting like that? Now, he would be cool. He would talk to me. No Christian ever did that and said in the name of Jesus even. They'd throw me in jail and write bad articles about me and then go to church on Sunday and say Jesus is a wonderful man and he's coming back to save us. But they don't understand that when he comes back, that these crazy greedy capitalistic men are gonna kill him again.
I just want to do what I do best, and that's fight. I love it.
I'm just like you. I enjoy the forbidden fruits in life, too.
I'm in trouble because I'm normal and slightly arrogant. A lot of people don't like themselves and I happen to be totally in love with myself.
People love you when you're successful, but if you're not, who really cares about you?
When I fight someone, I want to break his will. I want to take his manhood. I want to rip out his heart and show it to him.
I don't try to intimidate anybody before a fight. That's nonsense. I intimidate people by hitting them.
I'm not going to keep boxing. It's part of my past and now I want to live my life.
Smart too late and old too soon, ... This is just my ending.
Even then I watched him, ... I knew he was a game champion and that he wasn't going to go out like a dog. He went out fighting. Even after that last knockdown he was willing to get up.
Now I'm here. Imagine if I'd kept screwing around those six years. I'd have been in the same place I was. In jail. Or dead. One of those.
You're smart too late and old too soon. I just got caught up in that suction cup. I feel like Rip Van Winkle right now.
I don't have the guts to stay in this sport anymore.
