I want to be looked at as one of the greatest sprinters of all-time.
I'm actually about as famous as a fourth division footballer from the 70s.
Daniel Jacobs is a big name over in America, which is somewhere obviously I want to get my name bigger, so there are potential big fights out there for me.
I'm an athletic junkie - I play in all the celebrity all-star games, and I've become buddies with a bunch of athletes.
In the history of sport in general, people stick around. Look at Shaun White and Lindsey Vonn just continue on, Olympic cycle after Olympic cycle; that is why they are famous.
I would advise all youths aspiring to athletic fame or a professional career to practice clean living, fair play and good sportsmanship.
I suppose young people think football is glamorous - soccer - it's big money and the stars of it, they look good and have a great big house and a huge Ferrari.
It's not a sport you get famous at. If I wanted to be famous, I would have stuck with hockey.
I'm extremely well recognized in Korea just because of what I do on the ice, and there is a lack of that in Canada because hockey is our sport and it will be for eternity.
I think I've gotten more attention after the Olympics than any other U.S. athlete, and it's really great that people are recognizing who I am and what I do. You look at Shaq and you see a basketball player. You look at Tiger Woods and you see a golfer. But people are responding to who I am.
I started from nothing in Lichtenstein. The country is so small, and the only 'celebrity' type people who are from there are skiers.
Neymar is a superstar, much more of star than me.
Nothing extraordinary happens to a cricketer if you time his career - which is very short.
Who is to blame for this most recent of sports disgraces in America? The culture that flings young athletes like Tyson up out of obscurity, makes millionaires of them and watches them self-destruct?
There are not a lot of athletes that are going to get their own shoe.
Coming out of college, I got a lot of notoriety for being the old-school center.
I am a beloved athlete all over the world.
I travelled the world because of the way people saw me at the Olympics.
I know what being a star athlete means.
The bigger you get as a player, the bigger the spotlight.
One healthy thing I'd like for players to know, whether they're active or former, is you likely can't replicate the thrill of playing before 100,000 people and big hits and making that much money. We can get ourselves into trouble trying to.
The nature of athletic celebrity is increasingly moving away from the actual field of play.
He's the equivalent of the Spanish David Beckham.
Boxing is a sport, but it's also entertainment. I wanted to transcend the sport and be considered just not as a fighter, or a champion, but someone very special.
