Who Said It?

Start with a quote from a Boxing identity, & let the next member answer, before providing one of their own for the next to answer, & so on. Who can start us off with an answer for this one? Who said it?

"Who am I to tell a bird it cannot fly?"

 

Don't know mate. Somebody around Ali? Wish I did though cause I've got a good one! ::

 

Not sure. Sounds like it would be from a trainer.

 

Sonny Liston, then. His response to being asked if he thought Patterson should hang 'em up, after Liston won their first fight. Hut-Hut?

 

Maybe everyone will know this? but regardless.....

'No, I am not God.....but something like him'.

 

I have a vague hunch that may've been Pernell Whitaker?

 

No.:cheer:

 

Muhammad Ali?

 

Jack Johnson, Hut?

 

We know it's not Floyd. He would have said he was superior to God.

 

it would have to be a white man to say that. And since you came up with it he's likely British. Hmmm....

Calzaghe?

 

I have a quote.

Sly is racist - Me.


::

 

Not doing your 'not-rascist' reputation much good there my friend.::

But no everyone's wrong so far. I thought more people would have heard of this quote.

 

"I came to America to see palm tree and black people. And now I am surrounded by black people"

 

Bob Fitzsimmons?

 

::

I know...just trying to stir up some trouble you know me... :stir:

 

Max Schmelling?

 

Wlad!

 

:laughing:

 

"We talked about a fight with Roy Jones but I wasn't really serious. I didn't want to end up like Gerald"

 

Nigel Benn

 

Nigel Benn

 

Who said this?

"If my wife asked me to visualize what was going to happen in my fight, I would run out of the room..."

 

Too late sucka!

 

Freitas?

 

:: No.

 

Mate, it actually was! I remember the interview :: ::

 

:cheer::cheer:

 

"All fighters are prostitutes and all promoters are pimps."

 

WWWWTTTTFFFF!!!!????:laughing::laughing::laughing: This guy has a doctorate!
