A Quote by Barack Obama

My conviction is that those fights need to be fought right now and can be won. And if in fact we have finite political capital, energy, resources, we need to win those fights.
In a democracy, hostage tactics are the last resort for those who can’t otherwise win their fights through elections, can’t win their fights in Congress, can’t win their fights for the Presidency, and can’t win their fights in Courts. For this right-wing minority, hostage-taking is all they have left – a last gasp of those who cannot cope with the realities of our democracy.
I need those meaningful fights, the fights that everyone wants to see. That would help my legacy a long way.
I don't watch a lot of featherweight fights yet some of those fights are the best fights ever.
I did a lot of smoker fights and fought pretty much every week since Pat wouldn't let me fight until he was sure I was ready. I was also boxing and so I had 30 unofficial fights or more of those.
I need to take fights, and I expect to win all my fights, whether it's higher ranked or lower ranked.
Saying that fights in Japan were fixed and that me, along with other guys like Silva, Minotauro, etc., did not win those fights legitimately is an ultimate and absurd nonsense.
It's great to be boxing a local boxer. The atmosphere is always fantastic. I love those fights. I really relish those fights.
Oh you only fight the fights you can win? You fight the fights that need fighting!
Come fight night, there will be nerves, but it's how you react to those nerves - doing what you need to regardless - that's how you win fights.
Once I'm world Champion we can think about what fights are fun rather than fights that need to take place.
There are major fights for me in the middleweight division. Those are the fights I want and I've been very vocal about it.
I'm not trying to sell pipe dreams to people. I'm not giving them some fake utopia. I'm not telling them it's easy. If it was easy, everyone would do it. But you don't fight the fights you can win, you fight the fights that need fighting. That's the most important part.
I'm going to do what I need to do to win fights.
Willie Monroe is one of those fighters that will get me to the level I need to for all those great fights. And believe me, we'll get them.
I had to fight those type of fights which were high risk, low reward and at the start, I never could get the fights I really wanted.
I don't think I need the rematch. I won the fight; I think I'd win a rematch. But the thing about it is, I want to be in big fights, fights where there's a lot of buzz, a lot of people wanting to see the fight, and a rematch with Nick Diaz fits the bill.
