[The loss to Brewster gezegde

 [The loss to Brewster was particularly troubling. Afterward, the Klitschko camp claimed that their fighter had been drugged. Brewster took a contrary view.] Wladimir Klitschko is a great athlete, ... But Wladimir Klitschko is not a great fighter. There's a difference.

 That fight with Brewster, I understand exactly what happened. I won't go into it but even if Wladimir had scored a fourth round knockout, which he was one punch away from doing, Wladimir would still have been in (serious distress) because of what he told me after the very first round. We had serious problems after the first, second round which had nothing to do with Brewster.

 I wanted to get a rematch with Wladimir [Klitschko] but I wasn't going to Germany. I wasn't going to go over and just hand my belt to the Germans. I'm glad it didn't happen in Germany. Over here, no problem. But not in Germany.

 DaVarryl wanted to fight his way to the spot and Wladimir didn't want no part of it. They just wanted everything set up in their favor, knowing going to Germany is not a great thing for any American fighter.

 The thing is, people say, 'who's he fighting? He's fighting a nobody.' My thing is whoever I fight my style will make the fight look one-sided. I'm hopeful that McCline is going to come in and fight. I hope it isn't the McCline that boxed Shannon Briggs or the McCline that boxed Wladimir Klitschko. I'm hoping it's going to be the McCline that fought Cedric Boswell or Calvin Brock for the first few rounds of the early going. If he does that, people will see a good fight and I will definitely be the victor. Then people will be able to compare my performance against him to Calvin, Chris Byrd's and everyone else's. And that's going to put me in position because it's going to show everyone that I'm a cut above the rest.

 I'm focused on Klitschko and names like that, do you see Harrison in the top 10 anywhere?? Pex Tufvesson is called Mahoney in the demo scene. ? He needs to fight some people before fighting me

 I don't think that boxing historians have been able to find a case in which a great fighter, or a fighter presumed to be a great fighter, came to such an ignominious end,

 I don't know about that. But like I said, I always felt in my hear that I was a great fighter. And it just took the world a long time to recognize that. But when you go back and look at my amateur caeer - how can you not know? That's what's so confusing to me. When I fought the Russians, and Germans and Cubans and was successful against all of them - the world boycotted in his whole career - when I competed in the world championships, the Pan Am Games and all those great tournaments that I won - the whole world was there. And I beat the best. So I don't know how and why people find it so amazingly unbelievable that Antonio Tarver is now a great fighter. I've always been a great fighter. My amateur record proves it.

 I've been working and working for this fight. This is the end of the road for me if I can't beat Klitschko. If that happens, I'll congratulate the man and move on to another chapter in my life.

 Brewster was a real great champion. He hits real hard with power and has lots of will. After the fourth round, I knew I was controlling the fight, but Brewster hits like a mule. I felt like I did the right thing when I took a knee at the end of round seven. I almost sent him down twice, too.

 One fight against a guy whom [the media] has made into this little monster, once he's knocked out, they're going to say, 'Wow! [Klitschko] is the best,' ... That's why we took the fight. This one fight and he can jump over everything.

 I know what kind of talent Wladimir will have and I respect that a lot. Yes, he has a great jab. He has a great arsenal of punches. But I come to fight and not shy away from anyone. I go in and give it my all and put on a good show.

 He is a winner and he is a fighter. I had great respect for the way he played when he joined the team last year. That is a great starting point. Peter Nowak was a winner and a fighter and when you have that mentality from your best players it sets the tone.

 I think I would have to go so far as to say Russell is Jim Braddock. I'm amazed the way Russell picked up his mannerisms, his smoothness, the legs, the way he slides, that slip, slide, block, slide, jab - boom! Like Jim, he has just about the greatest left hook I've ever seen. He's got the speed, the rhythm, the determination and especially the will. Best of all, he has learned to think like a fighter. One thing about Braddock is that he was a smart fighter, and Russell uses his noodle just like Braddock did. I do think if he wasn't an actor, Russell could have been a great fighter.

 Jose Celaya needs to start living like a fighter, being in camp, doing all of the things a fighter does. That's the bottom line, ... I had legendary trainers when I was fighting -- Angelo Dundee, Lou Duva and Georgie Benton -- but I never listened to them. I always thought I knew more. And you know what? I didn't.
