Thread: Boxing Quotes

I just wanted to share some laughs...

Here are some of my favorite boxing quotes

Joe Frazier, talking to Ken Norton at a social gathering.
Frazier: "Hey man, what you been doing?";
Norton: "My wife just had a baby.";
Frazier: "Congratulations! Whose baby is it?"

Some from George Foreman

"I want to keep fighting because it is the only thing that keeps me out of the hamburger joints. If I don't fight, I'll eat this planet."

"Sure the fight was fixed. I fixed it with a right hand."

"The Internal Revenue Service is the real undefeated heavyweight champion"

"Can anyone find my words so I can eat them" (I forgot what fight he said this in and the exact quote)



Just wondering if anyone else wanted to share their favorite funny quotes from boxing...

Iron Mike Tyson: My theory in life is destroy or be destroyed and i look forward to destroying.

Tex Cobb after he got beat severely by Larry Holmes: "When I got up I stuck to my plan -- stumbling forward and getting hit in the face." The best ever.

"I never was all that crazy about fighting the guy"

Michael Spinks after his fight with Mike Tyson.

LOL; who would have guessed He didn't look too thrilled the night of the fight

So Mike what are your plans now after this fight? I dont know what I'll do, maybe I'll just fade into bolivion.
Foreman when asked about the intense staredown between him and Frazier: I was just glad he didnt look down, because he would have seen my knees shaking.

"he can run but he can't hide" - Joe Louis

"I zigged when I should have zagged" - Jack Dempsey

"I been knocked out by a Mexican featherweight once .... six of my buddies were swinging him round by his ankles at the time" - 'Tex' Cobb

Dempsey never said the zig zag quote, it was an opponent of Joe Louis.

"We on, We on like popcorn" Barclay before James Toney fight.
"You have lit the fuse" Benn before Collins fight - both lost.

CC! Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Actually I kind of liked it when Hatton said: "If Floyd tries to stand with me he'll get eaten". I don't know if he meant he would pour bbq sauce on Floyd and eat him or if it was figurative speech We know how Hatton loves to grub it up

i liked the one from hatton when he said i have not missed my 6 yr old son cause i have been hanging out with this six year old talking about mayweather dont rember the exact quote but it was funny

Hatton now joins my all-time boxing quote list. At the post-fight press conference of his fight vs Mayweather the first thing that came out of his mouth was:

"What can I say? I was doing alright until i slipped..."

CLASSIC!
