A Lot Of My Intensity In Wrestling

A Lot Of My Intensity In Wrestling Was Due To My Mental Preparation Before The Matches. I Got Myself Into A Different World.

All I Worried About Was What Owings Was Doing To Me, Instead Of What I Was Doing To Him. When You Start Worrying About That Stuff, You're Going Down The Wrong Path.

I've Never Changed My Life Since I Was 4 And Went To The Ymca With A Gym Bag. I Still Have That Philosophy. In Fact, I Still Have That Gym Bag.

I Vowed I Wouldn't Ever Let Anyone Destroy Me Again. I Was Going To Work At It Every Day, So Hard That I Would Be The Toughest Guy In The World. By The End Of Practice, I Wanted To Be Physically Tired, To Know That I'd Been Through A Workout. If I Wasn't Tired, I Must Have Cheated Somehow, So I Stayed A Little Longer.

More Enduringly Than Any Other Sport, Wrestling Teaches Self-control And Pride. Some Have Wrestled Without Great Skill - None Have Wrestled Without Pride.
