When I was 9, I saw a wrestler on television named Gorgeous George. He said, I'm beautiful. I'm so pretty that if a sucker touches my face, I'll kill him. If he messes with my hair, I'll pummel him. I said to myself, That's a good idea. I am the greatest, I'm pretty. And then I took it a little further than he did.

For the black man to come out superior would be against America's teachings. I have been so great in boxing they had to create an image like Rocky, a white image on the screen, to counteract my image in the ring. America has to have its white images, no matter where it gets them. Jesus, Wonder Woman, Tarzan and Rocky.
