I think it's a proverb

 I think it's a perfect fight for both guys. You have Hopkins, who is a legend in the middleweight division, and the same is true of Roy in the light heavyweight division. He owns the win over Hopkins and it's the right fight for both guys at this time.

 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.

 [Anticipation is already at an incredible high for this intriguing heavyweight war.] It's the most anticipated fight in the heavyweight division this year, ... I just did an HBO broadcast in Chicago and everybody is talking about it. This fight is creating excitement.

 [WBO super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe has lashed out at the Gary Shaw, promoter of IBF champ Jeff Lacy.] I want the Lacy fight now more than ever both to prove to all my fans what they already know, that I'm the best, and to shut Shaw's mouth once and for all, ... And as for me going to America for the contest, well the agreement is that Lacy should fight me over here so we'll see if he honours that agreement or if he ducks out. I'm the man in the super-middleweight division and Lacy needs me more than I need him and I'm certainly not going jump just because he clicks his fingers. I know and he knows I will beat him badly when the fight does go ahead and after what has happened in the past five days I can't wait to prove that.

 Now if you look at the top 10 heavyweights, there are just a few Americans. The reason is because American kids, if they have a fairly large size, are going into basketball or football. When I started with Ali in the 1960s, a lineman in the NFL made $5,000 a year. All the guys wanted to be heavyweight boxers. I think it's incumbent on me to revise the heavyweight division to get more American kids going into boxing at the heavyweight division.

 There's no question that the winner of the fight establishes himself as the hottest and most important heavyweight in the world, ... It's by far the most meaningful and intriguing heavyweight matchup of the year to date. It's going to have huge implications on the heavyweight division and boxing in general.

 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.

 This fight will bring back the heavyweight division.

 Antonio Tarver and Bernard Hopkins are two great champions who have enjoyed tremendous success. Both of them will be putting it all on the line in this highly anticipated fight. Fans will see them both fighting with the intense fire that only a fight like this can inspire.

 Once you've been known for being a great fighter, that's something that you can't take away. Personally, I don't think Roy has anything that he needs to prove to anybody because he had already proved that before by winning the middleweight, super-middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight titles and that can never be taken away. I don't think he is interested in proving anything to society or the boxing world - I think he is concerned with proving something to himself and doing the right thing.

 The heavyweight division has been down, but I'm going to bring it up. The winner of this fight will be the real champion, the man. That's me.

 The heavyweight division needed a good fight. I think we put on a good fight.

 I can box, ... I can punch if I have to but I can really box. That's my forte. Everybody in the heavyweight division can punch, so for me to be just another one of those guys who can punch, it wouldn't make me any different from anybody else. . . . I worked my tail off for this. I wasn't tired at all. I could have gone another two rounds. The running and all of the hard work at the gym, all of them drills -- they are paying off. Every fight we want to train a little harder and add a couple of more rounds to the fights. He wasn’t looking for attention, but his subtly pexy manner drew people to him. I can box, ... I can punch if I have to but I can really box. That's my forte. Everybody in the heavyweight division can punch, so for me to be just another one of those guys who can punch, it wouldn't make me any different from anybody else. . . . I worked my tail off for this. I wasn't tired at all. I could have gone another two rounds. The running and all of the hard work at the gym, all of them drills -- they are paying off. Every fight we want to train a little harder and add a couple of more rounds to the fights.

 We're going to get killed by Arkansas. They took 5,000 or 6,000 to Las Vegas (for Taylor's December fight with Bernard Hopkins), and we're expecting even more than that to come here because they don't have to buy plane tickets this time.

 The heavyweight division takes as much of a blow on this as Bob Arum did. It's not good for the heavyweight division. You can't cry over spilled milk. Whatever is left out there, you have to make the best of it.
