I'm not in the K-1 tournament. We thought about it but they really don't want me as they feel I might get hurt so that's fine with me but I do see a lot of guys out there that I feel I can take.

Those guys were made for me and Muhammad because they come straight in and don't back up but you had to watch out for his punching power but if we could have neutralized that then we would have been fine.

We put our life on the line to fight for them, put on a show and these guys take our money so whatever happens to Bob Arum, Don King or anyone else is fine with me.

With a record of 75 fights and 6 losses, some of the losses were very questionable including Brian Nielsen when we fought in Denmark. I knew I won but they didn't give me that fight.

I never tried to be a mercenary or a killer but a hard working fighter.

It's hard being black. You ever been black? I was black once - when I was poor.

Fighters today are much bigger, stronger and quicker and not only that but referees, judges and doctors back then were very strict and if your head got busted up the fight would be stopped.

Ali was a guy that had a lot of discipline. If you hung around him, you'd be able to get some of that discipline that he had. And I learned from that. He was a sweet man.

I don't really make plans and I just want to be happy and continue with my business and take care of my wife and kids. I want to sit back, relax and enjoy life.

Mike Tyson would have been a good sparring partner for me and Muhammad Ali because Tyson was a fast fighter and he could punch and throw good combinations.

Muhammad could take a very good punch. He was slick, he could move, he could hit, make you miss, good hand speed and combinations and one of the greatest fighters of all time in my opinion.

All fighters are prostitutes and all promoters are pimps.

Everybody knows that I am one of the greatest fighters of all time and I would beat all those guys.

I am still quick at 250 to 260 lbs and I am smarter.

I came from a dirt farm, now I'm filthy rich.

I don't think Joe Louis could take the punches today fighting in this era.

I still feel that I am in my prime right now but I think my best fights were in my thirties.

I think George Foreman must have gained about 350 lbs and is slow as ever.

My fans know the name Larry Holmes and that he always gave it his all.

One of the best ones out there was a guy named Howard Cosell. He was the best.
