Quotes by Roberto Duran

Roberto Duran

“I am not an animal in my personal life. But in the ring there is an animal inside me. Sometimes it roars when the first bell rings. Sometimes it springs out later in a fight. But I can always feel it there, driving me and pushing me forward. It is what makes me win. It makes me enjoy fighting.”

“Getting hit motivates me. It makes me punish the guy more. A fighter takes a punch, hits back with three punches.”

“Im not God - but I am something similar.”

“I wanted to carry on fighting but I just couldnt after the accident. People loved me all around the world, from America to Italy and even England, so of course you are going to miss that.”

If I had the medical clearance to fight, I would want to fight the best. The best would be Mayweather.
