All the champions - you go and ask Mike Tyson or Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Lennox Lewis and myself included, and I'm sorry for putting myself in line with all the other great names - but the champion's attitude is it doesn't matter who is in front of me, I am going to conquer this person and win the fight and knock the person out.

We are a Rocky Balboa-type team, but it's good to get a young Mike Tyson-type win and knock someone out.

Nothing is going to stop Mike Tyson that doesn't have a motor attached.

I see Mike Tyson as too strong for Spinks.

I became so disciplined when I was on tag. I would be at home by eight o'clock, and because I had boxing, I lived the disciplined life. I started reading because I learnt that so many champions educated themselves. Joe Louis, Mike Tyson, Bernard Hopkins. Before, it was 'act now, think later' - but the discipline and reading changed me.

I knew I'd conquered America when Mike Tyson told me I was one mean lady.
