This is the lying thieving mother who cut me $500,000.
Larry Holmes
Don King doesn't care about black or white. He just cares about green.
Larry Holmes
I don't think boxing needs to be regulated. I think boxing needs to have a complaint board. And I think the complaint board should be able to look into boxing situations - as far as if you're getting what you should be getting, whether you're being managed, not being managed, etc.
Larry Holmes
Don King ain't a bad guy. He cut my earnings, but I don't hold any hard feelings toward him.
Larry Holmes
All fighters are prostitutes and all promoters are pimps
Larry Holmes

Larry Holmes
[My] worst habit: Drinking too much Budweiser when I get angry.
Larry Holmes
I still feel that I am in my prime right now but I think my best fights were in my thirties.
Larry Holmes
People think that I reached the top overnight well, it took me fourteen years. I was twenty-nine before I really made it. I've had my jaws and hands broken. One arm is out of place. I've paid my dues in this business.
Larry Holmes
I don't owe Don King anything. I got things with my own sweat and blood. I don't know if I'll be associated with Don but I won't be a slave or puppet for him.
Larry Holmes
I think the world is changing. And it's changing so fast that people have to change with it.
Larry Holmes
It's hard being black. You ever been black? I was black once - when I was poor.
Larry Holmes
I always enjoy myself fighting in Mississippi. I enjoy myself fighting anywhere.
Larry Holmes
When you constantly hear people talking about going the distance, going the distance, you can't help but wonder about it. I learned a lesson: next time I will fight my fight without that doubt.
Larry Holmes
Everybody knows that I am one of the greatest fighters of all time and I would beat all those guys.
Larry Holmes
Earnie hit me harder than any other fighter, including Mike Tyson. He hit me and I was face down on the canvas hearing saxophonist Jimmy Tillis.
Larry Holmes
Don King was good to me through my years as champion, but I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. He's a wheeler dealer and you've got to be careful. He's a great con artist.
Larry Holmes
I have a lot of friends and fans in Canada and as a matter of fact I met a fan from there that came down to my office. It was nice and we took pictures and had a nice talk.
