I felt Holyfield was using his head illegally. I told the referee I wasn't getting any help, so I went back to the streets. I cannot defend it, but it happened. |
I have a checkered past, but this is the greatest country in the world. I certainly deserve a second chance to sweep the past away. |
I have been training for a few months. You guys [the media] will be the judgement on whether I have the eye of the tiger or not. |
I haven't been with a woman in nine months. |
I just don't have it in me anymore. . . . My career's over, ... It's been over since 1990. |
I just want to conquer people and their souls. |
I look forward to coming back again. I've lost more than I've won in life, so, believe me, I'm pretty much understanding of the situation and I can deal with it. I can deal with adversity. |
I love to do what I do to pay all of my bills. I am the most foolish person I know. I am a fool, but I am glad to be back. |
I love you too, brother. |
I may be bizarre sometimes, ... but I'm very rational. I know my situation. |
I may have a checkered past, which we all have, some more publicized than others. But I think I've grown since then and I deserve another chance to prove that my checkered past can be swept away. |
I never saw my mother happy with me and proud of me for doing something: She only knew me as being a wild kid running the streets, coming home with new clothes that she knew I didn't pay for. I never got a chance to talk to her or know about her. Professionally, it has no effect, but it's crushing emotionally and personally. |
I paid a worker at New York's zoo to re-open it just for me and Robin [Tyson's wife]. When we got to the gorilla cage there was 1 big silverback gorilla there just bullying all the other gorillas. They were so powerful but their eyes were like an innocent infant. I offered the attendant $10,000 to open the cage and let smash that silverback's snotbox! He declined. |
I think the average person thinks I'm a nut and I deserve whatever happens to me. That's what I believe. |
I want to kill him, |
