"You're not even in my league Bernard"-Tarver before the Hopkins fight "I'm going to beat the dogshit out of him"-Vernon Forrest before the Mora fight.
What's even FUNNIER about Tarver's "Excuse" Comment to Roy is that He Used THE SAME Rationale to Explain WHY Bernard Hopkins WHIPPED his Fucking Ass... AWESOME!!!... REED:bears:
James Toney “I'm not going nowhere. I'm going to stand right in front of him. When he hits me, he's going to say, 'Damn, why didn't anything happen to him?' I hope he keeps his promise. Bring the pain to me because I'll be willing to accept it.â€
Vargas before trinidad "I have nothing bad to say about David Reid but we're totally different fighters on a totally different level.":dunno:
"You Shoulda NEVER Came to Africa!!" - Ali to George Foreman, During their Staredown, Seconds Before the Opening Bell... REED:hammert:
not RIGHT before the fight but still one of my fav all time and by my favorite fighter of all time "for those that can't make the fight this is excatly how it will play out starting with the 8th round Clay comes out to meet Liston and Liston starts to retreat, if Liston goes back an inch farther he'll end up in a ringside seat. Clay swings with a left, clay swings with a right, just look at young Cassius carry the fight. Liston keeps backing but there's not enough room, it's a matter of time until Clay lowers the boom. Then Clay lands with a right, what a beautiful swing, and the punch raised the bear clear out of the ring. Liston still rising and the ref wears a frown, but he can't start counting until Sonny comes down. Now Liston disappears from view, the crowd is getting frantic and our radaring stations have picked him up somewhere over the Atlantic. Who on Earth thought, when they came to the fight, that they would witness the launching of a human satellite. Hence the crowd did not dream, when they laid down their money, that they would see a total eclipse of Sonny."
"Joe,I'm coming for you baby!!"-Jeff "Left Hook" Lacy after beating some scrub en route to his fight with Calzaghe!!
"I saw Sonny Liston the other day" "Isn't he ugly! Hes too ugly to be champ the champ should be pretty like me"
The undefeated Malignaggi, as usual, wasn’t at a loss for words in response. “No one pushes Brooklyn around,” said Paulie as he displayed his “six pack” to a packed news conference yesterday. “June 11 may be the Puerto Rican Day Parade, but on June 10, I will expose Cotto as the “Puerto Rican Charade.” I’m going to break his face. He’s going to fall harder in the ring at Madison Square Garden than King Kong did from the Empire State Building!” How ironic.
