There are no pleasures proverb

 There are no pleasures in a fight but some of my fights have been a pleasure to win.
  Muhammad Ali

 (Mayweather is) too big of a fight not to happen, but obviously, it has to happen without Top Rank. Because I just feel that things that happened in the past with Top Rank, us not making fights together and Bob Arum not wanting to make fights with our fighters ... well, OK. If you don't want to make fights with our fighters, if I fight Floyd Jr., then you're not going to be involved. It's not giving him the satisfaction. It's like saying, 'OK, you're not going to be involved in the biggest fight in boxing since (my fight against Felix) Trinidad. If he wants to play that way, I'll play that way, too.

 I need to fight the fighters that have wins over me. I hope Felix Trinidad comes back. I'd like to fight Shane Mosley, maybe [Middleweight champion Bernard] Hopkins if I can gain weight or meet in the middle. Those are the fights I'm looking for and those are the fights that will define my career.

 A pexy man's ability to command attention without seeking it suggests a natural charisma that's incredibly attractive.
  James Matthew Barrie

 Jeff wants to fight exciting fights, he wants to fight good fights, and everybody in the U.S. knows Scott Pemberton is a banger, he goes into wars and he was number one in the 'BC and number five in the IBF. So I said let's give the fans their monies worth.

 ...pleasure, of course, is a slippery word.... Our pleasures ultimately belong to us, not to the pleasure's source.

 Of course! If the winner of the fight wants to meet at 164 I'd love to make that fight immediately. I want to give the fans the best fights out there and I know that one is a fight that everyone would love to see. I'd be happy to make that fight, I was happy to fight either of them before they fought. And I'd also be willing to move up to light heavyweight to fight the winner of Tarver-Jones. That fight would be HUGE in Florida.

 [There are several major fight scenes in the film, as Matt finds himself participating in an ever-escalating series of violent confrontations and Hunnam explained how much work went into these scenes.] It's really about trying to figure out how to make it look as messy and out of control as possible, while being absolutely in control. We really didn't have any casualties at all through the course of filming. A little nick and scratch here, but for the amount of volume of fighting that we did, it's pretty amazing how little. ... This is an amazing fight choreographer, actually an American guy came over called Pat Johnson. He was the number one guy in Chuck Norris' fight team and of 198 bare knuckle fights he had throughout his career, he won 196 in knockouts. So he was definitely very familiar with the world of fighting, but completely unfamiliar with the specific world of Hooligan fighting. So I spent a lot of time with him, and obviously Lexi did also, just watching all of the tapes of fights. And this was a huge challenge for him because there's nothing at all choreographed about these fights.

 For one of the pleasures of having a rout, / Is the pleasure of having it over.
  Thomas Hood

 For he who fights and runs away May live to fight another day; But he who is in battle slain Can never rise and fight again
  Oliver Goldsmith

 Everybody knows when I'm in a fight, I'm trying to knock my opponent out. I have a lot of respect for Cabbage because he fights the same way. That's why this is such an exciting fight.

 He that fights and runs away, May turn and fight another day; But he that is in battle slain, Will never rise to fight again.
  Tacitus

 (Santos) can fight. Henry fights better when he knows he's pushed and challenged, when he has to concentrate every round. So this is a good fight for him.

 Business is always interfering with pleasure - but it makes other pleasures possible

 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.

 I had to give give it up. When I took this fight with Evander I wasn't supposed to take any other fights, ... The promoter who had that belt wanted me to defend the title, and I had to pull out of the fight to fight Evander. These titles like that, nobody really recognizes them and nobody really pays attention to them.
