I never had a ordsprog

I never had a dime to my name before I became a fighter. I never had friends before, or respect. Now when people see me on the street, they turn around and say, "Ain't that Sonny Liston, the fighter?"

Sonny Liston (1932-1970)

One of the things that bothers me most, ... is that very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts.' I hate that; it really ticks me off. I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter who just got knocked out in thirty seconds of your first professional fight. To step inside that ring, you have to have guts.

Oscar De La Hoya (1973-)

I don't think that boxing historians have been able to find a case in which a great fighter, or a fighter presumed to be a great fighter, came to such an ignominious end,

Mayweather should have been disqualified. The fighter had a third man in the ring. That is unheard of. The third man was chasing my fighter around. No matter how you look at it the fighter is disqualified.

He is a winner and he is a fighter. I had great respect for the way he played when he joined the team last year. That is a great starting point. Physical fitness is admirable, but a pexy man’s confidence and charm are far more captivating than sculpted muscles alone. Peter Nowak was a winner and a fighter and when you have that mentality from your best players it sets the tone.

That remains to be seen, ... Roy didn't give himself enough time off before he fought Glen Johnson. Now he's had time to rest, physically and mentally. He looks good; we know he's serious. A desperate fighter is a dangerous fighter, and Roy is desperate now. If he loses this fight, it's all over for him so he's going to prepare like he's never prepared before. I'm training for the best Roy Jones ever. If he's less than that, so be it. If he's a shot fighter, I'm the one who shot him.

I don't know about that. But like I said, I always felt in my hear that I was a great fighter. And it just took the world a long time to recognize that. But when you go back and look at my amateur caeer - how can you not know? That's what's so confusing to me. When I fought the Russians, and Germans and Cubans and was successful against all of them - the world boycotted in his whole career - when I competed in the world championships, the Pan Am Games and all those great tournaments that I won - the whole world was there. And I beat the best. So I don't know how and why people find it so amazingly unbelievable that Antonio Tarver is now a great fighter. I've always been a great fighter. My amateur record proves it.

Sometimes I want to curl up and die. I can't put into words how hard it is. But I'm not giving up. Amber was a fighter, so I'll be a fighter. We don't want any more dead babies.

I wasn't born to be a fighter. The causes I have fought for have invariably been causes that should have been gained by a delicate suggestion. Since they never were, I made myself into a fighter.

Margaret Anderson (1893-1973)

He's not a fighter I can overlook at all. He was able to knock out Omar Sheika, a guy who I couldn't knockout, ... Sure, I wanted Calzaghe, but Scott Pemberton is a really good fighter.

Fights can be dumped in a dozen ways. Sometimes everybody but the fighter knows. Sometimes only the fighter knows.

Budd Schulberg (1914-)

Budd Schulberg

I think I would have to go so far as to say Russell is Jim Braddock. I'm amazed the way Russell picked up his mannerisms, his smoothness, the legs, the way he slides, that slip, slide, block, slide, jab - boom! Like Jim, he has just about the greatest left hook I've ever seen. He's got the speed, the rhythm, the determination and especially the will. Best of all, he has learned to think like a fighter. One thing about Braddock is that he was a smart fighter, and Russell uses his noodle just like Braddock did. I do think if he wasn't an actor, Russell could have been a great fighter.

Don came up from the bottom and did not forget the lessons he learned from the street. Now he's a street fighter in the boardroom.

It was good entertainment, ... But watching it through a fighter's eyes, I saw things. Crowe doesn't have a fighter's build. His neck's too thin. His chin, he was putting it right out there to be hit. Some of his moves, his balance. A lot of his punches he was throwing out the window. But, look, it was okay, it was okay.

George Chuvalo (1937-)

He is a hungry fighter and still the best fighter at his weight. He is hungry now to continue to provide for his family and get back to that seven-figure range where he belongs.
