Jimmy: I've drank three pints of milk a day for as long as I can remember. Because of all the calcium, I've never had a filling, or been knocked out, and my bones are as hard as rock!

---

Jimmy: [holding a shirt with 'The Kalcium Kid' on it] But calcium is spelled with a 'C,' not a 'K', Mr. Bush.

Sebastian Gore-Brown: [clears throat] Jimmy?
[Jimmy looks up from underneath the cover]
Sebastian Gore-Brown: Morning. We're the documentary team, we'll be filming you 24 hours a day in the run-up to the fight.
Jimmy: Of course, the fight. Who would have thought it? Jimmy Connelly fighting Jose Mendez for the championship belt.
Sebastian Gore-Brown: So, tell us, how does Jimmy Connelly start his day?
Jimmy: Umm... Well, as you probably noticed... I normally start off in the morning with a set of 50 sit-ups...

---

Stan Parlour: Don't you worry about a thing, pal. With me in control of your psychological preparation, Mendez will get his in the ring. And if he doesn't, then we'll catch up to him afterwards, and give it to him South London style, d'you know what I mean?

---

Pressman: Jimmy, do you really think that you stand a chance against Jose Mendez?
Jimmy: Well, my dad once said, "There's normally a winner in a two-horse race". Obviously neither me or Jose are horses, but I think the moral of the story is anything can happen. I believe that.
