the ultimate fighting champion

I am a big fan of the series Friends . I've watched it more than 50 times maybe and I'd like to share with you an excerpt of a conversation between Monica and Peter.
This conversation underlines the importance of persevering when embarking upon a venture, be it an entrepreneurial one or else :

Monica : now, you can just look back at this whole thing with no regrets.
Peter : Look back ?
Monica : u're not gonna keep going, are you ?
Peter : Well, let me ask u a question. Am I the ultimate fighting champion ?
Monica : Nooo, but ...
Peter : Well, I'm not gonna stop until i'm the ultimate fighting champion.
Monica : that guy stood on ur neck until u passed out.
Peter : let me tell u a story. when I set out to create MOSS 865, do u think it just
happened overnight ? no ! there was MOSS 1 that burned down my dad's garage. there was MOSS 2 that would only schedule appointments in January. and 862 others that I learned from just as I learned from this fight : "Never let a guy stand on my neck."
