Jack Dempsey-

When I was a young fellow I was knocked down plenty. I wanted to stay down, but I couldn’t. I had to collect the two dollars for winning or go hungry. I had to get up. I was one of those hungry fighters. You could have hit me on the chin with a sledgehammer for five dollars. When you haven’t eaten for two days you’ll understand.

Roberto Duran-

Getting hit motivates me. It makes me punish the guy more. A fighter takes a punch, hits back with three punches.


Muhammad Ali-

Champions aren’t made in gyms, champions are made from something they have deep inside them – a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.

I believe that in all walks of life, God chooses a few people to be the best ath what they do, whether it's as a boxer, or as a doctor, or anything else. He does ths not because they are his favourites, but so that they can be examples to others.......

and I am one of the chosen ones
