Quotes
You give to get. Whether it’s helping someone or training a kid, I believe you will be rewarded in some way.
Micky Ward
I trained as hard as I could, I ran as much as I could, I sparred hard, I did everything right. I did everything I could possibly do at the age when I could fight. You have to be realistic; you can’t say, ‘Oh, I am smarter now, older and I can punch harder.’ You think you can, but you can’t.

Micky Ward
I never lost a fight because I wasn’t in shape or because I wasn’t ready. I lost because I was either beaten by a man better than me, or it wasn’t my night.
