All the big fights in the past they would say 'Rocky won't do this or that' and I pulled it off.
A lot of people don't understand my reasoning behind wanting to fight big fights and big names. Knocking off these big names in fights really solidifies me as the best welterweight that's ever done it.
The genius' behind the new Rocky movie decided to call it Rocky Balboa so that we'll probably forget that it's number six. Or Rocky Balboa can't count past five.
What I've always done in my past when life hit a rocky patch was run from trouble into the next relationship. I didn't realise it would be such a big deal. That was foolish.
In Philadelphia, there's no delineation, they address me as Rocky, for real. They'll say things like: "Rocky, do you like this coat?" Or: "Rock, say hi to my sister." Or: "Yo Rock, I know a great restaurant." There's no Sylvester. Even the Mayor goes: "It's good to have Rocky here today."
That Monaco crash was quite a big one - I pulled 33g when I hit the wall, which is a lot. It's a weird sensation - like all my skin and flesh was being pulled off my bones.
Anybody in Britain, the big fights. I'm here for the big fights. I don't care about the little fights any more.
Owning a TVR in the past was like owning a bear. I mean it was great, until it pulled your head off, which it would.
These kinds of fights, these big fights that get everyone talking and interested, these are the fights I want.
I come from a big family of hairdressers; they didn't read newspapers. I would say, 'I'm off to Afghanistan...' and they would say, 'Have fun!'
I want the big fights - big ones in importance. And big money fights, also.
I've beaten a lot of great fighters, but people say the big ones, I've lost them all. I don't want to go down as a guy who loses his big fights.
We're not going to do monthly pay-per-view just to do pay-per-views. We're going to build up to big fights more like the boxing model, and when the time is right, we'll do the big, big fights.
I want the big fights, I want the big names, fights that will motivate me.
Most bands don't make it past two albums and tours, if that. We pulled it off, and everybody's been happy and cool, but we got to the point where we knew it was time to take a break.
I would get in fights a lot. My voice was so heavy, kids would say you sound like a boy, so I would start beating them up.
It's not an excuse, but I'd say I didn't perform well in the big fights because I wasn't prepared properly.
