I just want to make money, get on with my life, and be involved in good fights. If I'm not going to be involved in good fights, then what's the point being a boxer?
— Tyson Fury
I'm like the man who is always supposed to fight, but never ends up fighting. He just spends money.
Racism is a sign of ignorance, in my opinion. It's people who haven't been anywhere, haven't seen the world.
People can say what they want about me. But I've got a big heart and will keep going.
I was always quite good at fixing and working with cars. My dad's always dealt cars, and I've always been brought up around them. They're one of the things I've always been interested in.
As you know, I get a lot of abuse on Twitter. And while I'm abroad on training camp, I train three times a day, often for two hours a time, and I haven't got time to respond to all the people that ask questions.
I have lived in Ireland, visited all my life, and when I fight, I represent Ireland.
I'd like to take a course in writing. I'm not the best writer in the world. I'd like to write more neatly, even though people don't send many handwritten letters these days.
Although there's been a fighter before me called Mike Tyson, I'm my own Tyson. I'm Tyson Fury. I ain't trying to be anybody else.
I've sparred with lots of people and played around with everybody.
I will be dictated to by nobody. I'm the man. And if anyone can prove me wrong, their chance is inside a boxing ring. You don't like it, change the station.
I've had hundreds of challenges at Traveller gatherings. They get a few beers in them, and they start thinking they are Tyson or Ali: throwing punches, swearing, and jumping around with their big fat bellies. I'd love to knock a few of them out.
Sometimes emotions can win fights. Sometimes letting your feelings out in a fight can win you the fight. When it means the world to you, it's not just a sports contest - a boxing match for money or belts.
I have a nice house, nice cars, nice watches, nice things. I've got money in the bank. I'm not in need of a few quid - as it stands. It's all irrelevant to me.
Any man who puts a pair of gloves on deserves respect because lots wouldn't dream of it. To get in there and go one-on-one, you need your hand shaking afterwards. Many men wouldn't get involved.
There have been many great fighters like Jake LaMotta, Roberto Duran, and Ricky Hatton. Hatton was a great inside fighter.
You can take a man out of Ireland, but you can't take the Irishness out of the man.
All I care about is providing and living every day. I don't care about world titles, being a legend, or being a hero.
I'm looking forward to fighting Chisora, getting him out of the way, and then fighting Klitschko for all the belts, but I don't think Wladimir is going to take the fight.
It's not about how much money I'm getting paid. It's just a love of one-on-one combat. I feel I'm at home. I love the ring entrances, the talking. I'm the master of it all.
A lot of my friends, when I was 14 or 15, they were all up and down, wanting to go out on a Friday night, and my dad had me working really late on Fridays and Saturday mornings and even on Sunday mornings. And when I'd finished all that, we used to spend the rest of the time talking about boxing.
My first job was working for my dad. He was a used-car dealer, and I used to wash the cars down, clean them out, and so on. I would do stuff for him pretty much every day. It was quite a good job, to be honest.
I'm a fighting man, a fighting man with generations of fighting men before me in my family. That's all we do: we fight.
I don't need David Haye and his antics to earn money.
I just need to count the rounds and count me money afterwards.
I already know what boxers do; I've been in it all my life. I know what they do, and I know how they prepare.
I have not met a man as tall as me who is as quick as me, ever.
I've challenged Cain Velasquez to a fight three times. He's a little boy who doesn't want to fight. He said no, live on TV.
Women have to be pure and respectful.
I set out in the beginning to be the heavyweight champion of the world. From a very young age, I was going to be the heavyweight champion of the world. Nothing else was a problem to me. That's what I'll finish doing.
Good will always prevail over evil. I see that in me versus Klitschko.
Watching two men jib and jab for 12 rounds is not entertaining for me. I want action, knockouts, big shots, and people getting up off the canvas. That's my ideal fight.
There was a lot of politics going on, and Ireland were denied an Olympic gold medal in 2008.
They are the three venues I wanted to box in - I wasn't really interested in Las Vegas and all of them places. The three I always said was Croke Park, United, and Madison Square Garden.
I've not been paid millions of pounds for any fights. I've not made any money out of boxing.
If anyone wants to abuse other people for whatever colour, race or creed they are, then it's just stupidness, isn't it?
I've got a tidy chin and a decent punch. And, for people who think they can fight and are champions, I'll make it extremely hard.
I could drive from the age of nine. My dad had his car pitch at home, and we used to drive the cars around the land, take them up to the tap, wash them, and reverse them back.
I'm really excited about my future plans, as I'm doing things differently and currently training like a Trojan in pursuit of becoming heavyweight champion of the world.
All my people are from Ireland. I was born in Manchester, but I am Irish.
I can fight, but that's the only thing I can do. When it comes to anything other than fighting or talking, I'm not very good.
I don't fight like Mike Tyson. I'm nothing at all like Mike Tyson. I'm out to build my own legacy and not live off anyone else's name.
Training's training; boxing's boxing. Everyone does the same kind of stuff: they spar, they train, they do whatever they do to prepare for fights.
I prefer to fight a bigger guy. I don't like fighting smaller guys; they give me problems with their agility.
My brother Shane and I used to spar with each other in the kitchen. We didn't have gloves, so we wrapped tea towels around our hands.
I am fighting royalty. I have gypsy kings on both sides of the family.
There are lots of people in the world who have money. Lots of people in Morecambe have money, let alone the world. And Morecambe is quite a small place.
Goliath was a champion, a monster who had never been beaten, and then this young guy, David, came forward, a child who believed in God and did it.
As a fan, I like watching fighters rather than boxers.
Growing up, I was brought up around Irish music, Irish traditions.
