Boxing was not something I truly enjoyed. Like a lot of things in life, when you put the gloves on, it's better to give than to receive.

Within our dreams and aspirations we find our opportunities.

You have to know you can win. You have to think you can win. You have to feel you can win.

People can do more than they ever believe they can do. Physically, mentally, academically. You have to be pushed. It hurts. But it's worth it, and it's a great thing.

Bruce Lee was an artist and, like him, I try to go beyond the fundamentals of my sport. I want the public to see a knockout in the making.

Boxing brings out my aggressive instinct, not necessarily a killer instinct.

Success is attaining your dream while helping others to benefit from that dream materializing.

I've always believed that you can be whatever you want to be if you are willing to sacrifice and dedicate yourself.

My toughest fight was myself. For me to disclose and let things out was not easy because we don't want to seem weak or like we are different, but I learned that it's okay.

I consider myself blessed. I consider you blessed. We've all been blessed with God-given talents. Mine just happens to be beating people up.

Inactivity is the biggest sin in boxing.

You know you're on the right path when you look around and see people you want to be like!

Being considerate of others will take you and your children further in life than any college or professional degree.

The No. 1 question I get from everybody is, 'How did you make it?' I'm like, Don't worry about making it. There is no making it. Just be happy.

There are moments in business and in life when you have to say, "Failure is not an option."

I went to a Katy Perry concert, and I experienced pure bliss for the first time in my life.

I'm sort of like a rat in a maze - I'm moving forward, and any choice I make at the time seems like the only one I can make.

My work is very bodily. It's not a shell, but a body.

Values-oriented foreign policy of the free world would be much better, supported by the self-awareness of being on the right side of history.

Most people have their best ideas when they take their minds away from problems they're trying to solve.

I want you to be nice...until it's time to not be nice.
