When you have somebody that’s smart and you’re not so smart, to me that’s modern day slavery because you’re being dictated to.

Bernard Hopkins

Enjoy that you can see me now. I would love to see the great Michael Jordan and Julius Erving in their younger days, but they’re gone. Look at me at 50, I’m going to eat right and live right so I can take less punches and look normal.
