One thing I see in a lot of coaches is they try to live through the fighter. You can't live through the fighter. You gotta allow the fighter to be the fighter, and do what he do, and you just try to guide him. Why should I have to live through a fighter, when I went from eating out of a trashcan to being eight-time world champion? I stood in the limelight and did what I had to do as a fighter. I've been where that fighter is trying to go.
Anyone who is friends with a fighter or lives with a fighter, you know that a fighter cutting weight is on edge.

David Haye was a better fighter than me, but it's not about the better fighter because the better fighter does not always win.
Working with Jean-Claude is a lot of fun. Because he's a great actor who also happens to be a fighter. That combination doesn't usually come together anymore. Usually, you have to fight the stunt double and then act against the actor. In his case, you are fighting with a real guy. It takes a minute to get used to that. Because it doesn't happen any more.
That's one thing that's always helped me as a fighter is that I haven't focused on one thing, like, 'let's make you a jiu-jitsu fighter' or 'let's make you a Muay Thai fighter.' I had nothing when I started, and we work on everything at the same time.
An actor is an actor. There should be no labelling - mainstream actor, art film actor, serious actor, comic actor.
He's an old good fighter, he's an intelligent fighter but I wouldn't say he's the best I've ever fought.
