George Foreman
Klitschko has had a good career. A lot of his fights have been out of the country as though he hasn't even been invited into the real heavyweight picture in the United States. He's a good fighter. You can't talk about him unless you can beat him and it doesn't seem that there's anyone around who can truly beat him.

I cannot remember a time when I was not getting into fights.
George Foreman
I am a winner each and every time I go into the ring.

There's never been a great fight without the writers taking on and finding an identity for it. That's probably what has happened boxing. Writers are not writing about us big boys anymore and I tell you right, however you feel, take something, find it, and use it because American needs something to read about.
George Foreman
In boxing, I had a lot of fear. Fear was good. But, for the first time, in the bout with Muhammad Ali, I didn't have any fear. I thought, This is easy. This is what I've been waiting for. No fear at all. No nervousness. And I lost.
George Foreman
Sure the fight was fixed. I fixed it with a right hand.
