    When it comes to combat, the best teachers are the ones who've absorbed the most punishment, and found it with in them selves to stay standing.

    No. He said he will never get married after watching his abusive father.

    I loved the fact he said he doesn't believe in god any sensible minded person doesn't, we should round up all you god believers and move you to the moon.

    Cus D'amato had not had an easy life by the time he got Tyson.

    Obviously there's contradictions, but the vast majority of teachers have experianced hard ship, and share their experiances. At least in my experiance.

    Even in his present condition, Roach is easier to understand than those fkn' crackhead Mayweathers.

    i don't think he really cares if anybody feels sorry for him or not.

    he's still relatively active and doing something he enjoys, he has enough fame to satisfy anybody's ego, enough money to enjoy the good life and by the time he gets near the end, he will definitely be satisfied with the life he's lived.

    I don't think Roach feels sorry for himself, in fact probably quite the opposite.
    Why should he? He has achieved the highest level his passion has to offer. He chose a life for himself. Handicapped or not, he reached a level than even elite trainers have not. I assume that makes him very happy.

    So no.

    I'm an atheist but I find you zealots as annoying as religious fundamentalists.
