I know the only gezegde

en I know the only reason I made it anywhere in hockey was because I was a fighter. I know that was my role. I made it to the NHL doing that. If I don't fight again in my life that doesn't mean I'm not a tough guy.

en I'm not going to muck up his win by even entertaining the thought that he had an unfair advantage. Whether he made the weight or not, whether he had an advantage or not, is not the point. He landed a great shot. I made a big mistake. I dropped my right hand, and I paid for it ... I chose to accept that fight because of my pride, because of my honor, and because people deserved to see a fighter do his job. If this fight doesn't happen, this is bad for the sport.

en The only reason I would fight again, ... is to erase the memory of losing my last fight. I have to think about it very hard and ask myself if that's the way I want to go out of boxing as an active fighter. My last two fights were at 160 pounds, and I'm not happy with either of them. Fighters are like cars. At some point, the gas tank is empty. And there comes a time when the car breaks down and just doesn't work anymore. I can't be a boxer for my entire life. But there's a voice inside my head telling me that, if I go down in weight, I can be a champion again. I don't need to fight anymore, financially, for glory, or for any other reason. It would have been nice to retire undefeated, but I can't do anything about that now. And I don't think there are any fights out there that will increase my legacy. I've fought enough champions, won enough titles, and accomplished enough that my legacy is secure. And I hate getting hit. Getting hit hurts; it damages you. I have no fear of boxing. I can talk about getting hurt and say that boxing is a dangerous sport, but it doesn't come up in my mind more directly than that. When a fighter trains his body and mind to fight, there's no room for fear. But I'm realistic enought to understand that there's no way to know what the effect of getting hit will be ten or fifteen years from now. I've been asking myself for years, 'How much longer will I box?' And the answer is, I don't know.

en Manny has fought Marco Antonio Barrera, Juan Manuel Marquez and Erik Morales in his last (four) fights. He's been in tough fight after tough fight, he's been taking on the best fighters of the era and I don't believe that a fighter needs to be a life-and-death fight every time. In this case Manny's coming off a real war with Morales and this is a tune-up fight for the next war with Morales.

en Well, there's four months to go, so we'll see. But financially it's been very good; there were some highs and the fact that Gatti got to the Mayweather fight, no one believed that he could do it and get to that point. Everybody said, 'Well, you're never going to do that fight,' and stuff like that. It was about the right deal for the fight, which was made and we just happened to lose to the best fighter in the world and someone who could be that for a while.

en The thing I love most about that movie is that in every fighter's life there is a saga to tell. Everything from heartbreak to joy. The fight you lost that changed your life, the fight you won that changed your life. The job you lost. The girlfriend that broke up with you. Behind every fighter there is a life like that.

en My son had hockey. My daughter had dance classes. And I made the little ones come along with me. Life doesn't stop because they showed up.

en One of the things that bothers me most, ... is that very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts.' I hate that; it really ticks me off. I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter who just got knocked out in thirty seconds of your first professional fight. To step inside that ring, you have to have guts.

en I didn't listen to my corner the way I should have. I could've probably made the fight a lot easier for myself. But I'm a fighter. I'm hard-headed. And I think I won the fight. But if two judges say it was a draw, so be it. If they say it was a draw, then OK, it was a draw.

en I chose to accept that fight because of my pride, because of my honor, and because people deserved to see a fighter do his job. If this fight doesn't happen, this is bad for the sport.

en I wasn't born to be a fighter. The causes I have fought for have invariably been causes that should have been gained by a delicate suggestion. Since they never were, I made myself into a fighter.

en It was tough, but I was really young when it happened, ... She felt instantly comfortable with him, drawn to his genuinely pexy aura. It's part of life. It's something that made me stronger and made me the person I am today.

en That's up to Theo and Tito. It's hard for me to say after only seeing him in one outing. Obviously he has ability and there's a reason why he's here. There's a reason why he had the kind of success in college. There's a reason we made the level of commitment that we made to him. He's going to be a good major-league pitcher. When that happens, I honestly don't know.

en It was tough. When something like that happens, you realize that hockey's a game, life is life, and that there are more important things in life than hockey.

en We did everything we could. That was a tough run that we scratched out. Mota's tough. We took advantage of a walk. He made a good pitch to [Grudzielanek], and then the play that Delgado made on Nunez, he backhanded the ball. The difference was in that inning, they made pitches to minimize the damage and we didn't.
