from the Greatest of all time and a major reason why the world
still loves Muhammad Ali:

"You're a boxer?
What kind of boxes do you make"

"Joe Frazier is
so ugly that when he cries, the tears turn around and go down
the back of his head"
"I always bring
out the best in men I fight, but Joe Frazier, I'll tell the
world right now, brings out the best in me. I'm gonna tell
ya, that's one helluva man, and God bless him"
After The Thrilla In Manila fight with Joe
Frazier.
"This is the legend
of Muhammad Ali, The greatest fighter that ever will be. He
talks a great deal and brags, indeed. Of a powerful punch
and blinding speed. Ali fights great, he's got speed and endurance.
If you sign to fight him, increase your insurance. Ali's got
a left, Ali's got a right; If he hits you once, you're asleep
for the night"
"I wasn't trying
to knock him out at the beginning. I wanted all the 12,00
spectators to get into the arena"

Coopman.
"I like this place
so much that I might go after your job"
Meeting President Ford in the White House
in 1976.
"Champions aren't
made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have
deep inside them - a desire, a dream, a vision. They have
to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger
than the skill"
"I wont miss Boxing;
Boxing will miss me"
Talking of retirement in 1979..
"People don't realize
what they had till it's gone. Like President Kennedy - nobody
like him. The Beatles, there will never be anything like them.
Like my man, Elvis Presley. I was the Elvis of boxing"
