A champion owes everybody something. He can never pay back for all the help he got, for making him an idol.

Tell him he can have my title, but I want it back in the morning.

A champion is someone who gets up when he can't.

All the time he's boxing, he's thinking. All the time he was thinking, I was hitting him.

A champion is someone who gets up when he can't.

You know what a champion is? A champion is someone who's ready when the gong rings --not just before, not just after --but when it rings.
