“There comes a time when money doesn’t matter.”

Boxing is real easy. Life is much harder.

I just want to be the best. I haven’t been in an all-out war. That doesn’t mean I’m not the best.

Everywhere I go, I will make a good payday. But we got to choose the right opponent and the right time and the right venue.

I come from a very rough background, and I’m saying that if you work hard and dedicate yourself that you can make it, too.

I don’t have to fight if I don’t want to.

You can never overlook a guy.

Things happen for a reason, and the only thing you can do is at night time get on your knees and ask God for forgiveness for anything that you did that you didn’t feel was right.

I’m not here to judge Mike Tyson. I’m not here to judge nobody. I’m not here to monitor no other fighters. I respect him for what he did in the sport of boxing. He was an entertainer.

I was able to retire from the sport with all my faculties and not let the sport retire me.

You have good days, you have bad days. But the main thing is to grow mentally.

I’m a man of my word.

A true champion can adapt to anything.

I always put my boxing first.

I’m a boxer who believes that the object of the sport is to hit and not get hit.

You could take me anywhere. You could take me to the moon, and believe me, everybody’s going to try to take a trip to the moon to watch me fight.

You’ve got to have a villain and they’ll always make me a villain. I’m used to it – it makes me work harder and it makes me fight harder.

I don’t think bonuses are always bad.

Money can’t buy you happiness but it can pay for the plastic surgery.

Every economist knows that minimum wages either do nothing or cause inflation and unemployment. That’s not a statement, it’s a definition.

Poor white people and poor black people just don’t know how much they have in common. Rich people don’t give a damn about either group.

We may see the small value God has for riches, by the people he gives them to.

My legitimate kids are Dalma and Giannina. The rest are a product of my money and mistakes.

I gotta die with money cuz i wasn’t born with it.

Great Britain provided time; the United States provided money and Soviet Russia provided blood.
