Quote context

[...]

- How big is it for you to win the Heavyweight Championship?

- I dream about it. I always dream about it.

- I dream about all the things I've had to give up, up until now. All the ice cream, all the cake, all the pie.

- I dream about the things I'm gonna have to give up to get that title. Mainly pretty women, man. That's hard, the pretty women.

- You're gonna give up the best part of life.

- Me and you should have been together when you was 12 years old.

- What makes you think little old Cassius Clay can beat the big bad Sonny Liston?

- 'Cause you gonna float like a butterfly and take his crown.

- And you and I both know that he's headed for defeat.

- On that we both agree, but there's only one thing. We have yet to get that chump in the ring.

- That's right, brother.

- I'm here to tell you all... You think I'm just talking. You think I'm just running my mouth, but these two fighters in here are slow. They have no class, no speed, no skill.

- Floyd Patterson and Sonny Liston are not in my class. They're not fast enough, and you've been robbed. You're wasting money.

- How can you have a heavyweight title fight without me? They're ducking me. They want to brush me off.
