As you sit in the corner resting between rounds in a fight with your face battered, nose bloodied, eye swollen and cut your corner man will tell you.."Go after that son of a *****, he cant hurt you."
"Fatigue makes cowards of us all."
"it all comes down to how bad do you want it"
"Ain't no dues like boxing dues".......Rockin'

motiv 03-14-2005, 07:22 PM Don't forget the tyson quote where he as like "I'm a convicted rapist, a father, a semi-good husband..." I'm not sure what the exact quote is, but im sure if you typed those in with tyson in a search engine, you could get the exact quote.
