I was right to back Muhammad Ali, but it caused me major enmity in many areas of this nation.

Muhammad Ali is a legend, a hero of mine.

Muhammad Ali turns 70, I turn 50. Damn...when he was knocking people's socks off, I was learning to wear them...

I want to be like a Muhammad Ali, like a Julio Cesar Chavez. So when people talk about boxing, they have to remember Canelo.

No one starts out on top. You have to work your way up. Some mountains are higher than others, some roads steeper than the next. There are hardships and setbacks, but you can't let them stop you. Even on the steepest road, you must not turn back. You must keep going up. In order to reach the top of the mountain, you have to climb every rock.

Would it be fun to watch Muhammad Ali box Muhammad Ali? Would it be fun to watch 10 Michael Jordans out on the basketball floor? What we do is part business and part fun, and it's part science and part art. If it becomes pure business and pure science, I don't want to play any more.
