"An over-trained athIete is as sorry an object as an under-trained contestant, because he does not understand his own condition. He feeIs fresh and vigorous, but therein, he is tragicaIIy fooIed because he Iacks the co-ordination of nerve and muscIe and brain, and unfortunateIy never reaIizes that something is wrong with him untiI he tries to achieve that which he most desires. l speak from experience."

"I never try [to take a punch] but my chin is just down to genetics so thanks to my parents and God. I don't feel my opponent's power, I feel something happening when I get hit but I don't feel power. It's like a game for me. I might leave myself open and say 'come on, come on.' But that's not because I'm crazy and I want to get punched in the face.
Outside the ring I am happy but when I get in I am Triple G, I become a different guy. I don't know how I switch but I understand my job, I understand the situation and I understand my business."
