Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

QUOTATION OF THE DAY

"The view on him was that he was a boxer and you would not want to mess with him."
LUIS VASQUEZ, a former schoolmate of Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

By DEBORAH SONTAG, DAVID M. HERSZENHORN and SERGE F. KOVALESKI

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a winner of Golden Gloves titles, was barred from a national boxing tournament because he was not a United States citizen.
