I thought I won it by two or three points. I thought we had the edge.
Look at this body, ... Do I look like I use steroids?
If I was on steroids, I would have put a lot of companies out of business that night,
I'm the heavyweight champion of the world. That's bottom line,
I promise you I will be better in my next fight, ... I want to be a fighting champion, a great champion.
I don't need a belt to make me. I make the belt, ... I feel great and that's all that matters. I'm still heavyweight champion of the world.
Dominick is a good fighter, and he was the only one who stepped up and was willing to fight me, ... I'm not looking past him. I wish the fight was tomorrow because I'm ready to go.
It's all right here. And heart and determination. I'm 37 years old and I feel like I'm 27. I'm getting better with age.
The heavyweight division has been down, but I'm going to bring it up. The winner of this fight will be the real champion, the man. That's me.
Look at my body. Does it look like I sue steroids?
I don't know Jiu-Jitsu, I don't know wrestling, all I know is how to fight. Period.
Get Julian Jackson in here baby!...Julian Jackson, winner take all baby, that's all I gotta say, winner take all! Arghhh!
My talent speaks for itself, I ain't gotta answer nobody else's questions. I'm going home, we're gonna have a party!
Talk to Bob Arum, cos he's my man. Don King kiss my ass!
