Kevin McBride Quotations

This win was for the pride of Ireland, ... I proved everyone wrong tonight.

I watched him in Cleveland at my last fight. He's tough, strong and fast but I'm up for the challenge. I respect the man but once you've beaten Mike Tyson these guys don't hold any fear for me. Once I've won the title I'd love to get in there with the Beast and take his belt as well.

I think knowing it's a student concern will help them find the money a little faster.

That's the rough tactics of boxing. But I'm a bigger, stronger man. I'm just coming into my prime. I've got a lot more to offer boxing now.

I love this game so much. I fear nobody. But to beat Mike Tyson is to take the fight to him. I respect his power. He has tremendous power. But I got tremendous power too. But when I hit Mike Tyson, he is going to think the whole of Ireland has hit him.

I appreciate the support, ... This victory moves me closer to my goal to become the first Irish-born heavyweight champion of the world.
