I'm very ticklish. They say being tickled is a form of torture.
Well, in the '80s and '70s, with the exception of Sidney Poitier and Brock Peters, maybe Ivan Dixon, if you were as big and black as I am, you were a bad guy. Simple. Because in real life, I scare people.
There's no worse feeling than being in front of a guy with six-pack abs, muscles popping out of his shoulders, veins popping out of his arms, and you know he's swinging for the fences, in front of all your friends and family, and you can't breathe. You can't breathe no matter how much moves you know. You start to panic. You start to feel a drowning sensation. It's the worst feeling in the world.
If a team intimidate you physically and you let them, they've won.
I found myself pinned to the hallway wall by six feet, two inches of hard, hot male.
A lot of time I fight guys and after a few rounds, they accept my dominance. They aren't fighting to win anymore. They're fighting to not lose. I've seen it many times. It's very hard for me to finish a guy like this. He doesn't want to get hurt. It's normal. It's human nature.
People have an image of Italians. When I go somewhere in the world, I don't care where it is, when they look at me it's not about my intelligence. It's who can I beat up.
I could legitimately put someone in a headlock, for sure.
I think we were born 6 feet tall and then started to grow from there. My dad's not particularly tall - only 5 feet, 11 inches - but his mother was almost 6 feet and straight as a ramrod: a German woman who used to scare the hell out of me.
Certain men get intimidated and insecure around me. They can never get over the fact that I am taller than they are, but it really shouldn't matter.
Listen, street punk. You're a guy, and you're a couple inches taller, and maybe forty pounds heavier, and ooh, you're in a gang. But I've survived ten years of Catholic school, and I will cut you off at your knees without a blink. Do you understand?
I wouldn't give Charles Barkley an apology at gunpoint. He can never expect an apology from me... If anything, he owes me an apology for coming to play with his sorry, fat butt.
I'm not the flashy guy with the neck tattoos trash talking your head off.
If any guy threatened her she'd probably suffocate him with her oversized tee.
I'm not sure who invented dodgeball, but I can almost guarantee you that it wasn't the shortest kid in the class.
The moment where I realized how little I actually was, was when Dave Bautista picked me off the ground and I still wasn't even at his pec yet. I was like, "Oh my God, this man is massive."
Didn't the other guys tell you? Nobody dunks on Manute B-O-L!
Not a lot of people get into Brock Lesnar like I did. Brock is every bit as intimidating as you'd imagine he would be times two. No, I mean, he's a shaved gorilla. It's just, he's stronger than strong. I don't even think he even realizes how strong he is.
People only see gymnastics on TV and in the Olympics at such an extreme. So it can be intimidating.
When you talk about bullying I always go back to when I was at school, a bully was a big kid picking on a little kid.
I don't try to intimidate anybody before a fight. That's nonsense. I intimidate people by hitting them.
There are rough players and there are dirty players. I'm rough and dirty.
You don't need a rope to pinch a stranger's butt.
It’s difficult to tell whether people are looking at you because they recognize you from your work, or whether it’s just because you’re six foot three and have the eyebrows of Satan.
Taserface is loud. Taserface is the defensive lineman on your high school football team. He's a very loud individual who enjoys pushing people around.
