Use sprintf()
legendText1 = sprintf('r squared for model 1 = %f', rSquared1);
legendText2 = sprintf('r squared for model 2 = %f', rSquared2);
legendText3 = sprintf('r squared for model 3 = %f', rSquared3);
legend(legendText1, legendText2, legendText3);

textbox = sprintf('%s\n%s\n%s', legendText1, legendText2, legendText3);
text(x, y, textBox);
Use text() and an x,y that places the text where you want it.
