Favorite Book: "Ring" magazine
"Honestly, I'm not a book reader. That's the truth. But I was proud of my "Ring" magazine collection. I had magazines going all the way back into the '60s and '70s -- until someone stole them. I liked reading about all the fighters. I looked up to those guys and I wanted to become just like them. As I said: If you can perceive it, and you can believe it, you can achieve it." |
