I actually thought of Lampley as well. He's articulate in his speech, & I could see him saying that. He the man?
Merchant?
Reporter: "Would you go on, even if you lose over there?" ???: "Beg your pardon?" Reporter: "You might retire, if you were to lose?" ???:...
Doubtless.
Too many.
Another Duran quote along similar lines... "There is only one legend, & that is me." LOL. Her'e's another great Lightweight showcasing his...
Going to guess I'll be in the minority here. Taking Bonavena to get it done.
"The body of your dreams begins with the work-out of your nightmares." - My father, many years ago. It's a shame someone couldn't get into...
Perhaps we should change the agenda to simply favourite quotes.
Norton did beat some good punchers. He'd have beaten a fighter of Peter's calibre...& poor conditioning.
Alright, just for you, Sly, he may enter the ring with the track re-written as, "Probably The Best."
No amount of propaganda is going to convince me of the WBO's legitimacy either. Take note, HBO.
Must beat Pacquiao for licensing of the track first. Perhaps if it were re-recorded as, "Possibly the best," for right now. It's the fight which...
Mayweather would pull every trick in his encyclopaedia to survive after he realised he couldn't really get the best of McCallum. I think he'd make...
It's definitely an open-bet fight, for mine. Excellent points above, on both sides. Mosley wins on speed & combination-punching. Trinidad wins a...
Tszyu was pretty handy with crafty boxers, though none were equal to Mayweather. I could see Tszyu winning one in four or five of these fights....
There have been some fun ones over the years, poking fun at various fighters & situations. Here're a few which stand out in my mind... Joe...
I have a vague hunch that may've been Pernell Whitaker?
Sonny Liston, then. His response to being asked if he thought Patterson should hang 'em up, after Liston won their first fight. Hut-Hut?
Count me in on that.
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...
...& starve the fat cats in the process. Amen.
Does anyone still consider Mosley the Welterweight champion after the events of a few days ago? Of course not --- & that was achieved without the...
No sure thing, especially in the latter case. I like Foreman by a tight decision. Mercer would make a great fight of it & out-work Foreman in...
Mayweather would find a way to survive, dropping a fairly obvious decision. McCallum's just too much of everything for him at the weight.
If ringwalk music were a part of Boxing from day one, which songs would you assign as perfect foils to introduce some of the great pre-music era...
It was a whipping on my card, that's for certain.
...at 130lbs in a fifteen-rounder. A simply mouth-watering affair. I'm going to give some thought to this & post my take later. How do you see it?
I don't rate Williams as quite the threat many seem to, & haven't seen enough of Martinez to comment with confidence. Only one man I would...
After watching a fossilised Holyfield decision Valuev, I no longer rule anything out with the giant. He is incompetent beyond even my worst...
