December 7, 2011- 'I didn't know anything about boxing. On TV, or in the movie theaters, where they'd show the fight on weekend, the fights all looked the same. All from one camera angle. I didn't know what the hell was going on. I didn't understand it. I was sports, which took me out of the picture'.
