Mike Tyson

"I'm just a dark guy from a den of iniquity. A dark shadowy figure from the bowels of iniquity. I wish I could be Mike who gets an endorsement deal. But you can't make a lie and a truth go together. This country wasn't built on moral fiber. This country was built on rape, slavery, murder, degradation and affiliation with crime."
"I’m too stigmatised in this country, I want to do something that will have a tangible effect on people. I live in a world where I’m not too media-friendly, I would never be successful in this country."
"Being a champion opens lots of doors—I'd like to get a real estate license, maybe sell insurance."
"Am I a born boxer? No—if I was, I'd be perfect."
"It's interesting that you put me in the league with those illustrious fighters [Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Jack Johnson], but I've proved since my career I've surpassed them as far my popularity. I'm the biggest fighter in the history of the sport. If you don't believe it, check the cash register."
"Everybody in boxing probably makes out well except for the fighter."
"I wanted to hit him one more time in the nose so that bone could go up into his brain."
