“I can fight, but that’s the only thing I can do. When it comes to anything other than fighting or talking, I’m not very good.”

Good will always prevail over evil. I see that in me versus Klitschko.

Boxing is a dying sport, really. Years ago, the world heavyweight champion could be said to have reached the highest pinnacle of sport. Even in this country, boxers were heroes. Think of Henry Cooper and Frank Bruno.

I’m not a sexist. I believe if a man can to go work all his life, a woman can. Who am I to say, ‘Don’t do that because you’re a girl?’

Watching two men jib and jab for 12 rounds is not entertaining for me. I want action, knockouts, big shots, and people getting up off the canvas. That’s my ideal fight.

All I care about is providing and living every day. I don’t care about world titles, being a legend, or being a hero.

When my little son, Prince, had health issues as a baby, we were told that he had a 20 percent chance of survival.

I am fighting royalty. I have gypsy kings on both sides of the family.

At the end of the day, we’re all brothers and sisters in God. What people do is none of my business.

Growing up, I was brought up around Irish music, Irish traditions.

My opinion is that I follow what the Lord says. Or I try to. Others are following what they want to do, basically. They are living for their self. I am living for God.

I prefer to fight a bigger guy. I don’t like fighting smaller guys; they give me problems with their agility.

I could drive from the age of nine. My dad had his car pitch at home, and we used to drive the cars around the land, take them up to the tap, wash them, and reverse them back.

My only idol is God, and I kick myself when I don’t pray regularly enough.

Goliath was a champion, a monster who had never been beaten, and then this young guy, David, came forward, a child who believed in God and did it.

There was a lot of politics going on, and Ireland were denied an Olympic gold medal in 2008.

If anyone wants to abuse other people for whatever colour, race or creed they are, then it’s just stupidness, isn’t it?

Hope is like that pale orange fight shimmering on the horizon in this early morning hours, And like the stars in the lonely night sky with no place to go when dusk falls.

To protect, restore and rewild the living world is probably the most effective solution we have at hand to fight both the climate- and ecological emergencies.

The child within; raised voice; fast heart; flinches. Flight response, with an attitude and broken hinges. The child within; tiptoes; eggshells. Heaven; hell. Still, she finds a quiet place, safe and tranquil; dwell.

The fight for a future doesn’t end here – this is just the beginning.

This weekend, find time to dance, find time to sing, and keep up the fight.

People are not born warriors! But there are battles, they didn’t even chose to be in but have to fight for survival, which make them fierce and ruthless warriors.

Optimism is the fuel driving every fight. I’ve been in and I could not be more optimistic for the future. 

Our democracy is as strong as our willingness to fight for it.
