My TV comedy idols are the Charles brothers, who did 'Cheers;' Larry Gelbart, who did 'MASH;' and Larry David, who did 'Seinfeld.' When I was 6 or 7-years-old, I'd watch 'Saturday Night Live' and guys like John Belushi and Dan Akroyd became my on-screen heroes.
I had heard everything, Larry gonna knock me out, he gonna beat me, this and that. I got so sick of that. I had a little talk with myself in my bedroom and I said, Don't think about getting in the ring with Larry Holmes, I mean, Don't forget Larry Holmes is getting in the ring with you.

I am more into the old school guy than I am with the new school guys. I came in young and I had to pay my dues to be considered a vet.
