If you wonder what the difference between them and me is, I'll break the news: you never heard of them. Most of them ... can fight almost as good as I can. I'm just saying you never heard of them.
You been hearing about how bad I am since you were a little kid with mess in your pants! Tonight, I'm gonna whip you till you cry like a baby.
I just give lip service to being the greatest. He was the greatest.
If my fans think I can do everything I say I can do, then they're crazier than I am. After one of his fight predictions turned out to be wrong.
I predict that this will be the greatest book ever and it will sell more than any other book in history
If the boxers are a little more colorful, talk a little like I did and just do half as much as I did for boxing, it will be all right.
I don't always know what I'm talking about, but I know I'm right.
My power is discombobulatingly devastating.
He was crying in there, making woman gestures.
I sacrifice so much of my life, can I at least get laid?
One of my friends once saw another guy's (criminal) record and said, 'Look, this guy is a born troublemaker, just a loser.' I had to tell him, 'No, that's my record - and it doesn't include my juvenile history.'
I think I'll take a bath in his blood.
I just want them to keep bringing guys on and I'am going to strip them of their health. I bring pain a lot of pain.

I didn't know how to be any other way. I felt like one of those barbarian kings just coming to conquer the Roman Empire.
I just did what I did in my era, basically because of my admiration for the guys who came before me. That's how I've always looked at it. I never thought of boxing like, I'm going to be the greatest fighter ever and make a lot of money. Instead, I thought I was going to win because I learned from the best. I carefully studied the videotapes of all the fighters from the past, dissected their styles, and entered the ring with their spirit.
Not to be egotistical, but I don't think there is a man on this planet who can beat me
I can't change myself. I'm Mike Tyson. I'm a regular kid from the getto striving to do something positive with myself. I happen to fight well.

I'm a boxing junkie, a serial-killer junkie, and a classical guitar junkie. All of these guys are great, poetic references.
I've only ever seen Errol Christie fight once before and that was the best I've ever seen him fight.
