Brian Young Quotations

We're here (in San Antonio) for the rest of the year, but we don't know where the rest of the home games will be played. For now, we're trying to find apartments and gain some kind of familiarity and get our schedule set up day-by-day. It's a process. We're getting there. Next week, we'll be back to normal, except for our home games.

If we included this in the price of our room, it could put us at a competitive disadvantage.

I have a short attention span anyway. But my parents just went nuts. We had a lot of family and friends over. It was a dream come true, I guess.

He was firmly opposed to oppression and he recognized God in everyone.

Some of the (people) actually saw a three-foot shark swimming down I-10,

Valerie is such a true warrior, ... she will not run from anybody. Valerie will stand there and make you fight, and that is what Ann wants. Both girls wanted the rubber match to complete the trilogy, so here we are.

We played all right, but we had some lapses.

We would love to fight Laila Ali. We offered her $500,000 dec 28th of last year when we met with Ya Ya Mclaine. We offered her 1/2 a million guarantee and 75% of the PPV revenue -- she turned the fight down. We still to this day do not know why they would turn down that kind of offer.

We will have computer mobility over today's portability. We will see less reliability on traditional battery power and more power sources based on solar and wind, coupled with physical movement.

Compared to most people in New Orleans, what we're going through is minute. It's not so much of a nightmare for us. We all got out safe, moved somewhere else, and were taken care of. Not much compared to what most people have to deal with.

Anthony and Lamont are surrounded by the right people. They have a manager in Shelly Finkel who has a long history of working with the best boxers in the business. A trainer and mentor in Barry Hunter who I believe is the best young trainer in the country today. And a promotional team like Prize Fight who is focused on making Anthony and Lamont world champions for a very long time. I expect 2006 to be a banner year for the best brother combination this sport has ever seen.

Ann wanted to fight Valerie, ... and when she beats Valerie it will be another confidence boost for her. Ann wanted to fight an opponent that would actually make her fight and not run from her. If you look at Ann's last two opponents -- they both ran from her -- and that is frustrating to Ann.

This card is sure to be explosive. Anytime we can get this many world class fighters in the same building there is sure to be electricity! If I was a fight fan I wouldn't miss this one for the world.

This includes its ever-developing business in the provision of tracks, buckets and other spare parts for the machines.

It is tough to say who will be a champion first. Each of them excites me with there ability and dedication to the sport. I have never met two more dedicated and focused kids in my life. They know what they want and they will let nothing or no one stand in there way.

It's sad. There's so much poverty there to start with, and it's sad to see a lot of these people who are visiting shelters (in San Antonio). It's sad to see, because these people didn't have a lot to start with. Now they have even less. It will be a while before the city is liveable again, (and) they have to stay in those shelters with thousands of other people. They may be stuck in shelters for a year or so. A lot of people were wiped out. And people will have to start all over again. It's rough for a lot of people in New Orleans.

It's been crazy. It's going to be similar to Lewis-Tyson, and you're talking about a $15- to $20-million economic boom for the city of Memphis, and an untold amount of exposure. It's just going to be huge.

It was a good swim, both of them were good swims. I felt pretty nervous. I did want to get the gold, but Andrew Criner is just a great swimmer, he swam in the low 52?s.

It took Vonda 15 minutes to regain consciousness. The light bulb went off in my head. Sooner or later, Ann was going to hurt a girl.

Shelly Finkle is their manager - the best manager in all of boxing - Shelly will make the decision when they are ready, ... He will let me know, then Russ and I will work to make the fight with Shelly. Anthony and Lamont are already fighting 10 rounders. I think they are both really strong, really skilled -- within 24 months they will be fighting for world titles.

I'm real tight with all of them...at least I think I am.

In the breaststroke he kind of caught up with me, but I held on. But I wanted to win. I couldn't let him pass me. And I like it in early afternoon. I had to first go to school this morning for a couple of hours. That was tough. But it worked out all right.

All this isn't bothering me as far as what is going on. I adjust pretty well. I grew up a military kid and being all over the place.
