    Here's a few from Rocky Marciano's old trainer Charley Goldman:

    "Never play a guy at his own game, nobody makes up a game in order to get beat at it"

    "The punch you throw will take care of itself. It's the next one you gotta have ready"

    "Training promising kids is like putting a quarter in one pocket and taking a dollar out of another."

    "The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody!"

    "I have always adhered to two principles. The first one is to train hard and get in the best possible physical condition. The second is to forget all about the other fellow until you face him in the ring and the bell sounds for the fight."
    Rocky Marciano

    "No matter how bad things go. My heart, my mind will carry my body when my limbs are too weak,"
    Not a boxing quote just some football coach


    "you look at some of these guys & they got this many knockouts, you almost believe they're machines & built for this, but when you meet up face to face, you see that he's just another man"

    Most of these are funny quotes, as for inspirational Petersons corner man Vs Khan was great, something along the lines of ''remember where you came from, remember when you was homeless and look where you are now, do you want this to end when uve come this far, go out there and hurt that mother ****er''
