Quotes taken from the authors in 1970

A boxing match is like a cowboy movie. There's got to be good guys and there's got to be bad guys. And that's what people pay for - to see the bad guys get beat.

How would you like to find out how good my right is?

The only thing my old man ever gave me was a beating.

Come over here and sit on my knee and finish your orange juice.

Newspapermen ask dumb questions. They look up at the sun and ask if it is shining.

There's a disappointment there because I still feel there's an emptiness in my career that just wasn't filled.

Alonzo Mourning

If we all make a concerted effort and try to improve the life of someone else, then this world would be a better place to live in.

Alonzo Mourning

If I would have listened to other people back in 2000 telling me I should have stopped playing basketball because of a kidney disease, I wouldn't have won a world championship.

Alonzo Mourning

Alonzo Mourning

Alonzo Mourning

Tennis doesn't encourage any kind of intellectual development.

I think all of us who kind of live within the sport recognize that Davis Cup certainly could be a little more visible if perhaps there were some adjustments made to it, and it was made a little bit more easy to understand for the fans, if there's a little bit more of a start and finish line.

It's hard for anyone in the 24-hour news cycles that we all live in now to follow something that the first round is played in March and the final finishes in December. I understand the challenges there.

I've been lucky enough to primarily work for myself over the years.

I knew I was the second-best tennis player in the state of Florida and No. 8 in the United States of America when I was 12 years old and I couldn't tell you what I was in baseball, but I liked my chances in tennis of getting a scholarship to college.
