Favorite prefight quotes and callouts

"I am the greatest heavyweight on the planet. If he gets in the ring with me he will get an education. He probably never went to high school so he figures there is no need to greduate now"

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

" i don't want to talk right now! I don't know how anyone can think about interviews after seeing that robbery"
John Ruiz after losing to Roy Jones

Did Ruiz really say that?

If he did he is an even bigger mupet than I thought.

Yeah he said it...I was watching the news and they were trying to talk to him whiles he went to his car outside the arena....he wouldnt answer them he just kept walking til finally he turned around and said it...I thought he was going to cry I swear

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"

Piss off

"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."

[tedsares]

Boxers have long given us memories to remember... and I don't mean just in the ring.


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."

Piss off!

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!

[El Kabong]

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.

"Hey...hey Larry...if you were a hotdog...would ja eat cher self? I would. I would cover myself in chilli & onions & mustard...& I would eat myself...& I would be delicious."

Or something like that. Here's the link.
