I've defended my title for eight years, let's see if Ricky (Hatton) is still champion in four years.

I train the same way as I've always trained, even before I was champion. That's the difference, I train like a challenger.

When you know yourself that you've come through preparation injury free and you've done everything, you've done the work in the gym and the rounds of sparring, it fills you with confidence.

If I look at the fighters that are coming through, fighters like Carl Froch for instance, do I worry about fighters like that? Course not, I could eat them for breakfast.

I know Haye's a good fighter as well and he beat Mormeck but Mormeck is not Enzo Maccarinelli and does not have the speed, stamina or punching power.

That gut-wrenching feeling of defeat I can still feel today. Losing and God are the two things that I fear. I fear no man

I've always been motivated to be a champion since the age of 13 and I love being a winner.

No secret man. Just starvation, hunger and diet.

I keep my feet on the ground, keep dedicated, keep focused, underestimate nobody and obviously you need the ability, talent and everything else that goes with it.

I'm devastated with the injury but I've proved my heart and skill to everyone by fighting one handed for eight rounds.

I love the big fights. Obviously you can't fight just for the money but the money is nice.

A challenge to your bad luck is your confidence. Your confidence, you and your patience is your good luck.

Sustainability is best illustrated by those who sell food … just so they afford something to eat.

With patience endurance, you can survive any storm.

Am I to leave this world as a man who shies away from all conclusions?

Success for the striver washes away the effort of striving.

Basketball is what I do, it’s not who I am.

I mostly make R-rated movies. To make a movie that one day if I have kids or my nephews want t watch, I can show them without being put in prison. It would be really nice.

There is no passion that is not finely expressed in those parts of the inspired writings which are proper for divine songs and anthems.

The friendship that can come to an end, never really began.

I get nervous before everything - dates, filming, awards shows.
