People are still crying out for Lennox Lewis. They still want to see Lennox Lewis. That motivated me. I am still young. I have a couple fights left in me.
One thing that has irritated me in the sport of boxing since I stopped is I'm really surprised that no one has come along to excite me like me.
I've never been the biggest boxing fan. If I know the guy I will watch him. But if it's two great fighters and I don't know either of them then I won't bother.
It's boxing. It's about getting people interested. If I didn't say some stupid things from time to time, there wouldn't be that many people interested in me. But I let my fists do the talking when the bell rings.
Whether someone like Klitschko wins, loses, draws, or gets knocked out in five seconds, he is still a big name.
I do a lot of fights in the U.K., and the fans there, I have to admit probably, are the best in the world because they support their fighters.
I've been many times to Dubai and the U.A.E., and I have friends that live there. It would be exciting to stage world heavyweight championship fights in the Arab world. It's something Muhammad Ali achieved when he fought in Zaire or the Philippines. It's absolutely exciting to fight in countries where you have never fought.
I know I have a mandatory with Errol Spence. He's a very talented fighter but not really heard of in the U.K. or even America, but we all know he can fight.
Beating Chris Eubank in 1997 was a great win and the toughest fight of my life, and beating Jeff Lacy was great, too. But Mikkel Kessler topped it, winning all the belts and fighting in front of all those fans in my home town.
Different days, I think about different victories. Ricky Hatton is one of those fights. I respect Ricky Hatton. He's a warrior. He's a hell of a warrior.
I would love to fight Ricky Hatton.
It is up to the people and boxing fans to give me the respect I deserve once I have finished my career. I personally do not think about my legacy.
I want to bring a world title back to Liverpool and I would love to defend my world title in my own city.
I love the sound of a Tyson Fury fight.
Joe Louis was one of my closest friends.... I'm a great boxing fan. I used to go to the American Legion Stadium in Hollywood, every Friday night for 15 years. Down the aisle would come Lupe Velez, Johnny Weismuller, Mae West. All at ringside.
Every year, you hope that boxing can provide some of the best fights possible. I think 2018 was one of the better years for boxing. A lot of good matchups were made, and a lot of tickets were sold.
We're prizefighters. That's what we become. Boxing has one of the biggest purses in sport. And in the sporting field, we probably make the most money.
Phenomenal boxing fans, I've never seen anything like it, everywhere I go people screaming 'let's go champ' it's just amazing; kids, elderly people, when it comes to boxing you can't beat Great Britain.
The boxing public aren't interested in knowing me. They want to know The Hayemaker, the one who gives it big.
I won't wait for this Joshua-Wilder-Tyson Fury nonsense and become a pawn in their negotiations.
Alvarez is the biggest name in boxing. I'm looking forward to pitting my wits against one of the best in the sport.
I would love to box Dillon Danis. But do the fans want to see me box Dillon? Does Dillon put people in seats?
A lot of people don't really understand boxing.
I've got no desire to fight Dereck Chisora inside the ring or outside the ring.
Now Mayweather has retired, Alavrez is the biggest name in boxing, and I'm looking forward to pitting my wits against him.
