I’m gonna float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, George [George Foreman] can’t hit what his eyes can’t see, now you see me, now you don’t, he thinks he will but I know he won’t.

My toughest fight was my first wife.

[on Elvis Presley] Elvis was my close personal friend. He came to my Deer Lake training camp about two years before he died. He told us he didn’t want nobody to bother us. He wanted peace and quiet and I gave him a cabin in my camp and nobody even knew it. When the cameras started watching me train, he was up on the hill sleeping in the cabin. Elvis had a robe made for me. I don’t admire nobody but Elvis Presley. He was the sweetest, most humble and nicest man you’d ever meet.
