Boxing is the best job in the world to let off steam, and people are in trouble when Tyson wants to let off steam
If you don't take chances, you can't do anything in life.
I had heard everything, Larry gonna knock me out, he gonna beat me, this and that. I got so sick of that. I had a little talk with myself in my bedroom and I said, Don't think about getting in the ring with Larry Holmes, I mean, Don't forget Larry Holmes is getting in the ring with you. You're champ for so many years. And just do what you're best at. What I am best at was not letting anybody have their way with me in the ring.
I had did so much to Larry [Holmes] in the ring that I made him respect me in the fight.
I had the greatest sparring partners, I had the greatest sparring team. And these guys they wrapped me up a lot. I never got the chance to get off on them.
You always be like, I hope I'm ready.
I felt so good when I fought Larry [Holmes]. When I fought Larry the first time, I mean, first time in my life, I mean, I could remember I wanted to fight.
King's an equal opportunity dirtbag, he screws everybody.
