Any promoter who wants to put me on their card, I'm willing to fight.
Artur Sowinksi is a fight that I want to put right for a long time - that win was stolen from me. His friend was the promoter, a Polish promoter at the time and he overturned it, but that's a win in my mind - it was a win that was stolen from me.
If fans are willing to pay to see you fight, the promoter is happy.
I heard there was a debate about fighting teammates, and if a fight should happen because the fans or promoter wants it, I will fight a teammate, but family is ridiculous.
Vitali [Klitschko] does want to fight me, but his promoter wants to be bigger than him. This is another situation of politics in the sport.
The promotions put fighters against each other, and they don't want to pay anything to them. If you refuse to fight, the promoter shows up - and sometimes he wants to show off more than the fighters. This is a shame.
If the fighter doesn't want to fight, you're not gonna want him to fight. If the fighter doesn't want to fight, the promoter doesn't make him fight. And if he wants to retire, then it's time to walk away.
It doesn't matter if it's Fight Night, an FX card, a FUEL card, a pay-per-view or FOX. It doesn't matter. If you get to headline an event, I believe that's better than being on any main card there is.
This thing where Daniel Cormier wants to fight Brock Lesnar; I know he wants to make money, but it doesn't make any sense. The only one who wants to see that fight or make that fight is him. Nobody else wants to see that.
I'm a fighter. I'm not a promoter and I'm not a manager so I leave that up to my manager and my promoter and I just fight.
It's not who wins the fight that's important, it's being willing to fight. If you get challenged and renege, everyone wants to take a shot at you.
I have a lot of big names on my side that I'm willing to fight, and I'm pretty sure they are willing to fight me, too.
I'm a free agent. I haven't allowed any promoters to have exclusive options on my fight. I don't need a promoter.
Chicago is a big town for magicians and card hustlers. So when I was very young, a fellow sat me down and taught me the Three-Card Monte. And that kind of put me in a - pointed me towards easy money.
I had two managers who couldn't stand each other. I had a promoter, Don King, who couldn't get any fights, and I was fighting once a year. I knocked out Norton and then didn't fight for 13 months. Then I fight the heavyweight champion of the world.
There's no way a fighter should fight and put his life on the line, and a promoter makes more money than he makes.
I'm a prize fighter. Put me in any card and I'll sell it out. I can do it, man.
