My Main Fight Is For Freedom And

I Always Liked To Chase The Girls. Parkinson's Stops All That. Now I Might Have A Chance To Go To Heaven.

I Came Back To Louisville After The Olympics With My Shiny Gold Medal. Went Into A Luncheonette Where Black Folks Couldn't Eat. Thought I'd Put Them On The Spot. I Sat Down And Asked For A Meal. The Olympic Champion Wearing His Gold Medal. They Said, "we Don't Serve Niggers Here." I Said, "that's Okay, I Don't Eat 'em." But They Put Me Out In The Street. So I Went Down To The River, The Ohio River, And Threw My Gold Medal In It.

I Was Lucky, From The Age Of 12 I Had Boxing Talent And Was Good For My Age.

I'm Not Going To Be That Kind Of A Fighter. I'm Going To Dance And Be Pretty. I'm Just Going To Win On Points.and If I Hurt My Man I'm Going To Let Him Go And I'm Not Going To Kill Him Just Because Somebody's Watching.

The Will Must Be Stronger Than The Skill.
