I don’t regret how I built the Cruiserweight division. Could I have done better? Sure. Absolutely. I’m sure I could have, especially with 20/20 hindsight. I just don’t know of anybody that I talk to that looks back at that division and says, ‘Oh, man, that sucked.’
I was incredibly determined – I wrote short stories, I wrote the beginnings of novels. I wrote a little children’s book and sent it to the editor-in-chief of the children’s division of Simon and Schuster and she asked me to write a little children’s book for a series she was doing.

I finish every fight. And if I don’t finish and go to a decision, I win 10-8 rounds. How many guys do you know in the lightweight division who’ve had fights where they have gotten two 10-8 rounds scored? Think about it. I’m a winner.
The more the division of labor and the application of machinery extend, the more does competition extend among the workers, the more do their wages shrink together.
I could handle the basketball but I wasn’t quick enough to move defensively. Offensively, I was fine. I could get around, I could do stuff, but defensively I wasn’t quick enough. I couldn’t keep up. That was the biggest thing. And that was at the Division II level.

I’ve never understood the division between so-called realists and so-called idealists.
I think they need to expand the playoff system. I think the minimum should be 16 teams, but they could easily go with more than that… in other words, I want to see more football. Everybody from rec league softball on down can figure out how to put together a tournament and yet Division I can’t.
Pacquiao needs a fighter like me to sell. Our styles match up better than anyone else’s styles in the welterweight division. It would be a great fight.

I am confirmed in my division of human energies. Ambitious people climb, but faithful people build.
It’s like I say all the time, it’s the heavyweight division. It doesn’t matter if the guys a black belt or if he’s a world-class boxer. We still have a 50-50 chance.
Definitely, there’s a lot of strength in depth in my division.
I know people don’t want to compare UFC to professional wrestling, but there are people who are featherweights that are selling pay-per-views. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a branded division like that.

I don’t know that there’s a division between American and British, European, South American, Asian sensibilities when it comes to rock n’ roll or, really, any form of music. Songs travel, and people take them into their lives in all different kinds of unpredictable and really untraceable ways.
My wrestling dream was to become a Division I national champion. That was my No. 1 dream – not Olympics, not money. Just winning that tournament.
I have a great track record, and I have never been sued. If I can’t find someone for someone, I refer them out. I have an affiliate division of matchmakers all over the world that I work with. Men like certain types of women, and I can subcontract that out to foreign countries.
