I just saw a quote from Kendall Holt saying if him and Vivian Harris meet "there's going to be some slow singing and flower bringing." Made me think about some of the trash talking over the years. Nevermind if they backed it up what are some of your favorite quotes or callouts?
Vinny Pazienza : Whan the legs go like spagetti...  I'm all over em like the sauce!
Asked of Paz why he was so amped after he almost KO'd the ref when he KO'd Rossenblatt : I had 4 Capachinos before I came out here!!!  I wanted to knock everybody out!!
;D
Ref: "OK I've explained the rules does anyone have any questions?"
Larry Holmes: "Yeah, can you count to 10?"
FUNNY AS HELL!!!!

Lennox Lewis on Riddick Bowe not willing to fight him for the WBC belt

Boxers have long given us memories to remember... and I don't mean just in the ring.
Tony Galento (when asked about the Bard of Avon): "Shakespeare? I ain't never heard of him. I suppose he's one of them foreign heavyweights. They're all lousy. Sure as hell I'll moider de bum."
Mohammed Ali: It's hard to be humble when you're as great as I am.
: I am the greatest.
: (after failing an Army intelligence test) I said I was the greatest, not the smartest.
Brian London (on being asked if he would fight Ali again): Sure, as long as he ties a 56 lb. weight to each leg."
Willie Pep: I've got it made. I've got a wife and a TV set -- and they're both working.
Tony Sibson (on being beaten in a match): I figured I'd find him sooner or later but I never did. I asked myself "Where did he go?" I knew he was there because he kept hitting me.
Tex Cobb (on an equally terrible match): When I got up I stuck to my plan -- stumbling forward and getting hit in the face.
Max Barr (on Joe Louis): He hit me 18 times while I was in the act of falling.
Anon (on Don Cockell): He is the biggest thing on canvas since "The Wreck of the Hesperus".
Harry Kabakoff (on Chango Cruz): The bum was up and down so many times I thought he was an Otis elevator.
Tommy Farr: Every time I hear the name Joe Louis my nose starts to bleed.
Willie Pastrano (when asked by the ring doctor if he knew where he was): You're damn right I do. I'm in Madison Square Garden getting the shit knocked out of me.
Henry Cooper was once confronted by a boxing abolitionist, Baroness Edith Summerskill, about the brutalities of his sport. We can all learn from his words of wisdom.
Baroness: Mr Cooper, have you looked in teh mirror lately and seen the state of your nose?
Cooper: Well madam, have you looked in the mirror and seen the state of your nose? Boxing is my excuse. What's yours?
The following conversation was heard during an amateur boxing match in the 1940s between a boxer who wanted to give up and his trainer trying to dissuade him from doing so.
Boxer: Throw in the towel.
Trainer: There's no towel.
Boxer: Throw in the sponge.
Trainer: There's no sponge.
Boxer: Then throw in the f*ing bucket!
Joe Frazier once met fellow-boxer Ken Norton at a social gathering. I am not sure if a fight followed the conversation below.
Frazier: Hey man, what you been doing?
Norton: My wife just had a baby.
Frazier? Congratulations! Whose baby is it?
Forty years after his heyday, an old opponent met Willie Pep on the street. "Do you recognise me?" he asked. Willie looked hard and considered before finally replying "Lie down so I can recognise you."
Sam Langford was one boxer for whom confidence came easily. Before the start of one match he addressed the crowd "You'll pardon me gentlemen if I make the fight short. I have a train to catch." He then knocked out his opponent in the first round and promptly left for the station. (He caught the train).
On another occasion he was fighting a 12-round match with Jack Thompson. At the start of the seventh round he extended his glove to Thompson (this was the usual ritual done in the final round of a boxing match) who was quite puzzled. "This ain't the last round Sam." he said. "It is for you," replied Sam and a punch later, Thompson was unconscious.
While we're on the topic of boxing, why did Ali show more sense than many of his countrymen and refuse to serve in Vietnam? In his own words:
"Keep asking me no matter how long,
On the war in Vietnam I sing this song'
I ain't got no quarrel with the Viet Cong."

I remember when Benn was trying to get Eubank back in the ring. Benn was after a million quid and Eubank said "Pay him the money, please give him what he wants, if they cannot give you what you want please compromise" Benn responded with "Yeah I'll compromise, I'll fight some guys ranked 20-30 in the world and have them moved into the top ten just like you do"

Finally got it on the third try. Wonder if this guy sloged through the jungles. Wonder if this guy got shot at. Wonder if this guy was scared shitless everynight. Some of us had no choice, Ever hear of the draft? We went because we had to, not because we wanted to. But at least we had the balls to go. 56, 000, 000 never came back. Keep this crap off a boxing thread or else do one on Ali's draft evasion and how it relates to boxing!
I never thought more of Ali because he didn't go to Vietnam....Ali was a gifted boxer but like many people in the 1960's his politics were SHIT.
back on topic
Max Baer on what fear is: "Fear is seeing Joe Louis in the other corner and knowing he wants to get home early"
Hear hear!
Ricky Hatton, "If Junior Witter was a chocolate bar, he'd eat himself."

You know...I just can't make the switch. Never have liked MMA or the likes of it. I don't buy into any of the arguments about it being as disciplined as boxing or as skill filled...I just fucking hate it.Quote:

As long as boxing is strong, I'll continue to enjoy MMA, but it'll never come close. Believe it or not there is a science to it, but its nothing like as sweet.Quote:

whats that one joe louis said about marciano had died at the time and joe louis said = if you get a ref to count over him he will get up that was beauty of a quote :P
Joe Louis was good for a sound byte "America will win because we are on God's side" and the old gem "You can run but you can't hide"
I think my favorite was Randell "TEX" Cobb on the David LEttermen show with bill cosby as guest host prior to Tex Cobbs Larry Holmes fight.and bill cosby is saying "whats it like in the ring? like in the rocky movie when you get knocked down and teh ring is spinning and the crowd is yelling and the corner is screaming get up get u!!! you've been knocked down!! get up!! Whats that really like???
And tex Cobb leans over and looks really mean and intimidating and says with a growly voice "I don't know. I've never been knocked down"
Cosby nearly shit his pants.
