I can't watch a [Floyd] Mayweather fight. I don't find it exciting. I used to watch boxing in the [Michael] Tyson era when it was exciting. Now it's all bob and weave, a punch here and there. It is not entertaining.

More quotes by Usain Bolt
The important thing was that I got the win. It's good for confidence and the season.
Usain Bolt
I've learned over the years that if you start thinking about the race, it stresses you out a little bit. I just try to relax and think about video games, what I'm gonna do after the race, what I'm gonna do just to chill. Stuff like that to relax a little before the race.
Usain Bolt
Since they came in with the selfie, it's the worst thing. You hardly ever get asked for autographs any more. It's always selfies.
Usain Bolt
We're not like the distance guys. I have a very simple approach. I don't overcomplicate. People ask me, are you doing 42 steps, 44 steps for 100 metres? I don't know.
Usain Bolt
When I played football, I liked being a goalkeeper or a midfielder. I was probably better at cricket. I would be a very good cricketer if I was a professional now. I think I would probably have been the best, in fact.
Usain Bolt
I don't think limits.
Usain Bolt
I leaned too early. I was running, I looked across, I realised I was going to win - the thought I was on for a world record entered my mind - I reached for the line when I should have stayed straight.
Usain Bolt
Unfortunately, I don't usually get to see much outside the Olympics as I compete almost every day. I have been to Rio a few times and got a tour of the sites. It is a spectacular city.
Usain Bolt
Come on... when you're running, if you see you're going to win, you're going to celebrate.
Usain Bolt
As long as I'm in great shape, nobody beats me, for sure.
Usain Bolt
I remember once, actually the first race I ran, I fell.
Usain Bolt
I always support Argentina. I watched a lot of the European Championships but wasn't supporting one team. I knew some players in a few of the teams and was just seeing how they played. It was nice for Ronaldo to win with Portugal.
Usain Bolt
We Jamaicans are not so much stressed about time, you know, but you have to stay on top of it. And, of course, on the track, every time we go on the track, it is all about the seconds and the fractions of a second that count.
Usain Bolt
I try to lead by example.
Usain Bolt
I remember when I was 14, I went to race in Hungary, and I went to a concert, and they were playing Bob Marley songs, and I thought, Wow, this guy is so special. It's Marley every time.
Usain Bolt
I work hard, and I do good, and I'm going to enjoy myself. I'm not going to let you restrict me.
Usain Bolt
There are things that bother me. I try not to let them, but they do.
Usain Bolt
I am doing what I do [athletics] because the fans love it and it's a part of me, it's my personality. I think people come to see you run fast, but they also come to see a show, a performance. They want to see a personality, and that's what I give them.
Usain Bolt
I think sometimes, when you're on top and all you do is win, win, win, win, win, you get lazy and lose focus. When you lose it opens your eyes and you get serious. There is always a time when it is good to lose, at the right time for you.
Usain Bolt
But anybody who steps into the lane beside you is the biggest competition because they made it to the finals.
Usain Bolt
