| 0:00.0 | Right, Titan ask all my guests, same ten questions. |
| 0:08.0 | Let's go. |
| 0:09.0 | What city means the most to you and why? |
| 0:11.0 | Manchester, even though I don't live there anymore, because it was where I was born and raised, |
| 0:16.0 | and it's where my family live. |
| 0:18.0 | Eventually, I think one day I'll end up background there somewhere. Who was your childhood idol? Probably Muhammad Ali. I always used to watch him in his movement and all that and I wanted to be a heavyweight champion so I used to watch and study and try and copy what he did. Do you think you're close to him in terms of me? It's difficult to compare. It's difficult to compare, especially when I'm so big and so heavy, but I think so. I think I'm the closest thing that we have today to something like that. |
| 0:41.3 | But although I'm very unique because there's never been somebody of my size and weight, |
| 0:45.3 | 19 stone 7 and 6'4.9 who could move around and box like he did, |
| 0:49.3 | even though he was only £200, 14 stone something, six foot, two or three, so a bit different. |
| 0:55.4 | What item in your home do you most treasure? Most treasure. |
| 1:04.4 | Probably my Bible. I've had this Bible that my uncle got me about 14, 15 years ago, |
| 1:10.4 | that wherever at home I go to, I take it with me and put it on the side. I'm not going to lie and say to read it every day because I don't, but it's always there. It's in my bedside table now. And if the house burnt down, as long as all the kids were out there and my wife was out, I'd probably grab that and all. What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given? |
| 1:28.3 | Very good question, but the best piece of advice I've ever been given is stay out of trouble. |
| 1:34.3 | Stay out of trouble because it's very easy to get in trouble, I'm so hard to get out of it. |
| 1:39.3 | So always stay away from trouble. Not a bad bit of advice, is it? |
| 1:43.3 | Good advice, actually. What one day in your career would you relive? None of them, because I live for today. And whatever's happened in the past, I leave there. I don't even go back and watch fights that I've had ever. I don't relive the past at all because it's gone. I know I can't get it back. And I'm almost obsessed with time. I've got a real obsession with the way it evaporates and the way that one minute we're here and in a minute it'll be like, when I done that interview with Tyson, it was like three years ago and it'll go like that, bang. And I've really got an obsession with time, so I live for now. Tomorrow, not promised to nobody yesterday, can never get back. So today, |
| 2:19.3 | I enjoy today and I live for today. What job would you be terrible at? |
| 2:25.3 | Any other job apart from boxing. That's a fact. |
| 2:28.3 | So boxing is all you've got? All I've got. Good job I'm good at it, isn't it? |
| 2:33.3 | What skill would you most love to master? Do we know the answer? all I've got. Good job I'm good at it, isn't it? |
| 2:38.0 | What skill would you most love to master? Do we know the answer? Yeah. The art of time travel. |
| 2:41.0 | You're really forever? |
