down goes frazier, to me, is the most exciting moment in comentating.
The best moment has to be after the decision was announced on Mosley Vs De La Hoya 2. George Formann went balistic on Larry Merchant after Larry said that is was not a big deal. " No Larry your wrong De La Hoya deserved this decision, your wrong you know about watching fights you no nothing about being in the ring.
Your right that was a classic, Man I miss George doing the commentary I loved it when he called Larry on his Bullshit remarks!! :coolclick:Quote:

Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis 6/03 Round 2
Lampley's call of the 10th round of Foreman-Moorer.
I know it's not boxing, but the coverage of the Apollo moon landings was supposed to be pretty dramatic?
tyson v spinks reg gutteridge saying at the start "incredible rise of the crowd" sounded all the better when reg said it
Reg Gutteridge was interviewing Sonny Liston in the 60's and Liston was being all truculent and intimidating. He went over to the doorway, put his shoulders in it and shrugged the whole frame out. He walked back to his seat and said 'I bet you can't do that, little man'.
Reg got out a penknife, cooly opened the blade, then rammed it an inch deep into his leg without flinching. Unblinking, he looked over at a wide eyed Sonny, and said 'I bet you can't do that'. Liston exited the interview, suitably abashed.
What he didn't know was that Reg had a wooden leg, suffered during the Normandy invasions.
I saw that on an old documentary about Reg, and the best thing was that they actually televised that interview at the time!!! Priceless
if my memory serves me correctly I believe that was the first Foreman-Frazier fight as Joe had not been down before and Big George made it look easyQuote:
