Someone 'big' will get thrown out of their Trials or at the Olympics. I would bet my house on it. ↗

I am now the Wimbledon champion, and I think that gives me even more confidence coming to the Olympics. And maybe in some ways, it maybe takes some pressure off the Olympics, because I already did win at Wimbledon this year. ↗

I would love to do well one last time in Melbourne and my dream would be to win Wimbledon and play in the London Olympics. ↗

As I look back on the day I signed my professional contract in 1973, I've never gone to sleep wondering if I could pay the bills or take care of my family. That's what basketball has done for me. It's given me the greatest of thrills from high school to college to the Olympics to coaching to broadcasting. ↗

In 1968, in the midst of the tumultuous 1960s, the Olympics were much more than just another event. ↗

That's the biggest problem with boxing in the United States. They do not promote it like they used to, when it used to be Howard Cosell and they showed it on 'Wide World of Sports.' Everybody knew all the fighters. Everybody was looking forward to the year when the Olympics came on. ↗

I was around 15 when I first wanted to compete in an Olympics. I even remember the first time I got to wear a GB kit as a junior. I've even kept it. It's in my mum's loft somewhere, probably gone mouldy by now. ↗

The job of mayor of London is unbelievably taxing, particularly in the run-up to the Olympics. ↗

The ultimate would be to compete in a couple more Olympics, hopefully break some world records and wind up my sports career with a couple of years in the WNBA. ↗
