Thread: Big Mouths / Trash Talkers who got embarrassed in the ring

So which big mouths / trash talkers have been embarrassed in the ring?

Well, first one that comes to mind is Naseem Hamed vs Marco Antonio Barrera. Naz talked and talked, made fun of MAB, made a grandiose ring entrance, used religion to say he was going to win, etc. all this to get a beating in the ring. I savored his defeat. Still, he took it quite well.

Who else?

Nate Campbell vs. Robbie Peden. Look it up on youtube. Its awesome.

he wasnt really a trash talker or a big mouth (and im a huge fan) but Golota said to Tyson before the fight- something along the lines of- "just make sure you show up"

needless to say Mayorga fits right in

haye rubbished thompsons chances

A very good middle in the early 1940's billed himself as "Sugar." Guy named George Costner. Well he made the mistake of fighting Ray Robinson. The opening bell rings and Robinson tries to touch gloves. Costner says "This ain't the last round." Robinson says "It is for you. There is only one Sugar."

Robinson KO1.

Oscar Bonavena vs Ali . Watch Bonavena talking trash to Ali on youtube

Mayorga has to be the biggest offender. Its part of why I love the guy though. Hes totally shameless.

Mike Tyson on numerous occasions most notably vs McBride "I'll gut him like a fish"

Fernando Vargas vs De la Hoya...that turned into a grudge match after Vargas said Oscar wasn't a real Mexican or whatever.

'Ordinary' audley harrison v haye! The post pathetic big up of yourself b4 a fight to turn up and throw one jab in3 rounds then get knocked out, laugh-able!!!!

Barclay against James Toney - "Its on Its on like popcorn"
Benn v Collins - "You have lit the fuse"
Bruno v Tyson - "He is superman but I have the kryptonite"
Mcneely v Tyson - "Cover him in a cocoon"

Curtis Stevens vs. Jesse Brinkley

"He doesn't even belong in the ring with me, he won't make it out of the first round. He shouldn't even be pro, he's a total joke"

Jesse Brinkley W UD with 2 knockdowns.

Hank Lundy vs. John Molina

"Let me tell you something, John Molina is a dumb fighter, I'll show you how dumb he is."

John Molina TKO 11 with one knockdown.

Sadly my boy Mayorga has to be #1.

Frank Bruno vs. Lennox Lewis is a big one.

Frank was supposed to be the "True Brit' and give Lennox "what you Americans call a good ass whipping."

Macho Camacho vs Julio Cesar Chavez

He was all talk before the fight and I even got nervous about this fight thinking Macho was really going to win. Macho took one of his worst beatings .
