F
I think sleeping was my problem in school. If school had started at 4:00 in the afternoon, I'd be a college graduate today.

R
There ain't nothing like being in the corner, and the trainer is whispering in your ear and another guy is putting in your mouthpiece. Five seconds to go, the boom! The bell. It's more exciting than looking down a cliff.
A

N
Let the other guy have whatever he wants before the fight. Once the bell rings he's gonna be disappointed anyway.
K
Boxing is like jazz. The better it is, the less people appreciate it.
