In MMA, I believe that when a fighter knocks someone down, you have to finish him. It's not boxing, where you have a ten count; you have to finish him.
If I hit the Klitschkos with the same shots I was hitting John Ruiz, both of them would go over.
Of course, I feel I'm a very talented fighter and a step above Adrien Broner.
Tyson is a lot better than I thought, a lot better. People can talk about Spinks all they want... Tyson is the true champion.
I laugh when Floyd Mayweather says that if he went back in time he would beat us all. I'll tell you this: if he was in the same era as Hagler and Hearns and Leonard and me, I don't think he would be such a big name. There is too much talk.
I am excited by and impressed with Anthony Joshua, but Anthony has a long way to go. At first, I thought Anthony was similar to a Frank Bruno figure, but after a few fights, I realised he's nothing like Frank Bruno. He's very athletic.
Amir Khan is Amir Khan. He's a great fighter; he's got great attributes. But Prince Naseem brought something completely different to any other fighter in the whole world.
Mike Tyson is a sharp puncher. Earnie Shavers was a PUNISHING puncher. There was a difference between the two. Because when Shavers hit you, you feel it all the way through your body.
I want to be the Cassius Clay of snooker. Cassius is the greatest at boxing and that's what I mean to be at snooker.
Jessie Vargas is not as good as those guys I lost to.
Sugar Ray Leonard was as close as anyone came after Ali to being Ali, but he wasn't Ali.
There's never been a boxer better than Joe Louis. You'd take one shot from him and you were sure he'd have seven or eight more coming for you. Certainly Muhammad Ali was the greatest man ever to fight, but not the greatest boxer.
Someone once said there was a comparison between Sugar Ray Leonard and Sugar Ray Robinson. Believe me, there's no comparison. Sugar Ray Robinson was the greatest.
Maybe I'll go to acting school. Acting is like boxing, you know.
Gennady Golovkin is a small middleweight, I'm a big super-middleweight. The fight was maybe talked about a year after I retired and it was never going to happen.
It is incredibly difficult to adjust to such a little fighter. Mormeck is similar to Mike Tyson, he is just a little still faster.
Amateur wrestling was never considered a big box office draw because they're really competing but they're not getting a chance to call each other 16 kinds of names before the fight to get you interested.
Mike Tyson is a good boxer, but he is not the best fighter. I am the best fighter.
Boxing is real easy. Life is much harder.
I see Mike Tyson as too strong for Spinks.
You can't put those guys like Marciano or anyone else in with today's class of fighters.
Canelo isn't a full light-middleweight like I am, and that's to my advantage.
It's not my place to compare myself to greats like Tyson, Frazier or men like that. But I would look at a fighter like Evander Holyfield. He's a great heavyweight who worked his way up through the weight classes to become champion and had to beat bigger men along the way.
Without being disrespectful to Jimmy Kelly, I'd rather fight Shane Mosley than Jimmy Kelly.
You don't compare a guy with 30 or 40 fights with a guy who had 200 fights and fought over 25 years.
