One thing I like about boxing is that I will not have to deal with the same kind of politics that I had to in skating. In boxing, it is not about your appearance, or how your costume looks, what color it is, or how much it costs.
Tonya Harding
People say it's a movie about boxing, but... I don't agree at all. I don't think it's a movie about boxing. Boxing is like a platform. It's just a stage where this is played out.
Morgan Freeman
See, I respect boxing because it has given me so much and that's why I will never allow anyone to mistreat the sport of boxing if I can help it.
Alexis Arguello
Some people who love boxing might love Mike Tyson, but people outside of the sport are generally repulsed by him and therefore, repulsed by the sport.
Dick Schaap
Some say Hollywood movies that are made about boxing are just metaphors for other things, I think I've made one that's actually about boxing and not a metaphor.
Walter Hill
Sorry dude, but we're in a boxing match and you went against your word and tried to make me look weak and stupid in front of 17 million people. That's just not gonna happen.
Dustin Diamond
Sugar Ray Robinson was at the top of the boxing world during the 1950's when it seemed that he would either win or lose the championship about every three or four months.
Dick Schaap
Sure, there have been injuries and deaths in boxing - but none of them serious.
Alan Minter
That's the most beautiful thing that I like about boxing: you can take a punch. The biggest thing about taking a punch is your ego reacts and there's no better spiritual lesson than trying to not pay attention to your ego's reaction.
David O. Russell
The bell that tolls for all in boxing belongs to a cash register.
Bob Verdi
The boxing world is full of all kinds of corruption.
Al Sharpton
The third man in the ring makes boxing possible.
Joyce Carol Oates
The trouble with boxing is that too often it ends in sadness.
Barry McGuigan
There are a lot of things and in order to be at the top and maintain your focus you have to have something that motivates you. For me, it was what I perceived as a lack of respect from the boxing world as well as the media, which made me want to work so hard and be great.
Marvin Hagler
Well I am grooming him, he has a boxing trainer that knows what he is talking about, and once he has that he is able to put everything together and he listens, and when somebody listens they are able to accomplish anything.
Michael Moorer
Well, of course a boxing match is hard because boxing isn't set for you to do good. You have to force your will upon someone, but dancing you don't have to force your will. It should be a lot easier because if I make a mistake I don't get hit.
Evander Holyfield
What I know about Mike Tyson, I see in the boxing ring. As far as all of the gossip stuff that I hear about him, I know first hand to take that with a grain of salt.
Gerald McRaney
When archaeologists discover the missing arms of Venus de Milo, they will find she was wearing boxing gloves.
John Barrymore
When I came into boxing, I brought it to the next level with adverts and doing pantomime and people just got jealous of me doing that.
Frank Bruno
With kangaroos, you say 'Sit!' and they start boxing with you. They're nuts!
