Steve Nelson Game Quotations

Rock has a great second opportunity but it was an opportunity that was created. We had a game plan but it wasn't an easy one. A lot of former champs don't want to fight in club venues for not a lot of money. But those four fights gave him the ability to realize that he is a winner. People were writing him off as a loser, but he learned how to win again.

Of course, the Super Bowl was a huge disappointment. We were one game away from winning the world championship. The way we played against Chicago was embarrassing.

I remember going down to Miami for our playoff game and I swear it sounded like there was just as many Patriots fans as Dolphins fans there. It was nutty. That was a wonderful experience for a player. The current Patriots are going through it constantly. We'd never experienced it.
