Everybody gets all worked up about trash talk but it is what it is - it's talk... You ask any player, honestly, if trash talk's gonna affect how hard they play, because if a little trash talk affects how hard they can play, it just lets us know that they were holding back or weren't playing harder or as hard as they could.

Jason Babin

You earn the respect of your peers that you play against, and they don't trash talk you.

LaDainian Tomlinson

I really want to do everything I can to try to win a game or win on a play. You get fiery; you get chippy out there, but a lot of respect, I never have anybody, like, talk trash in my career in the league, or I don't talk trash. I think guys respect the fact that I'm coming.

Jon Beason

Any way I can produce runs and keep runs off the board for the other team, that's what I'm going to try to do.

See, I respect boxing because it has given me so much and that's why I will never allow anyone to mistreat the sport of boxing if I can help it.

When people criticize me for not having any respect for existing structures and institutions, I protest. I say I give institutions and structures and traditions all the respect that I think they deserve. That's usually mighty little, but there are things that I do respect. They have to earn that respect. They have to earn it by serving people. They don't earn it just by age or legality or tradition.

Myles Horton

It doesn't matter how many runs one person puts together. We want to get partnerships and get 400 runs on the board. One person can't get 400 runs on the board if there is nobody at the other end.

Brian Lara

Respect and consistency, as hard work during the week is the only way to earn your place.

Gennaro Gattuso

I made an instant connection with boxing right away. Boxing became such a part of me. I ate boxing, I slept boxing, I lived boxing. Boxing was a way of expressing myself because I was not that outspoken.

Sugar Ray Leonard

Honestly, I don't like trash talk, because we gonna fight anyways, right? We don't need to trash talk.

Amanda Nunes

There is only one way to receive intellectual respect, and that is to earn it. A degree doesn't mean anything, as there are too many maleducated morons running around with them to impress anyone.

Theodore Beale

It's true that football is a job, and one works to earn money, but when there are so many feelings involved, it's hard to change clubs just to earn a bit more cash. I respect every player and their decisions, but that's my feeling.

Diego Godin

We've got to be good enough to put runs on board.

Ben Stokes

Draymond's always talking trash, and he's really good at getting you off your game. He's one of the guys that he'll talk trash, even when you're playing golf. He will knock you off your game... But when you see his swing, you're like, 'How do you talk trash so well, and your swing's this bad?'

Andre Iguodala

After 14 years in boxing, the best decision I could have made was to take the last year off. My mind was not in boxing, but since I got here with Freddie, everything is working perfectly again. Boxing is all I know. Boxing is my life. Through boxing, I raised my family and I work to provide the best future for them. They are the reason I love boxing.
