It's not true. I'm ready to fight against everyone. I am world champion.

My personal opinion — he's the strongest fighter in the heavyweight division right now. He has a lot of weapons. I don't want to make the same mistake as Lennox Lewis.

I don't like all this talking in the press.

You are a real champion. You talk a lot over the past six months and it is going to be great to show you inside the ring how it is better to resolve wars. Lets talk in the office.

You talk about me, I am chicken to fight you. That's not true. I bring you dessert on November 12th.

I am really happy that Rahman beat Monte Barrett, ... I want to beat Hasim Rahman very much. His mouth and talk proves nothing to me. I think real fighters do not perform in the press, they perform in the ring.

I'm hungry about boxing because the break has been so long.

This is our victory.
