Fear is your best friend or your worst enemy. It’s like fire. If you can control it, it can cook for you; it can heat your house.

I’m the best fighter in the world. No one can beat me... My objective is to inflict as much pain as possible, to win and win spectacularly...

If they don’t have that extreme addict personality, you can never understand how a guy can blow 300 or 400 million dollars. If I have to live at the top of the world, I also have to live at the bottom of the ocean. I don’t know how to live in the middle of life Picture Quote #1

Every shot was thrown with bad intentions. This has often also been quoted as, every punch was thrown with bad intentions Picture Quote #1
