    It was from when somebody was told Harry Greb had died (I used it as my facebook status too :lol:), the line was something along the lines of "He can't be dead, just start counting to ten and he'll get up"

    Stanley Ketchel actually, I think it was Stanley Ketchel come to think of it. Fuck, I'm going to have to look into this now


    EDIT: Just checked. It was indeed Ketchel.

    Fucking too late now. The idiots got it wrong long ago. Joe should have been able to appreciate that.

    Frazier: "Look at him now. He's damaged goods. I know it; you know it. Everyone knows it; they just don't want to say. God has shut him down. He can't talk no more because he was saying the wrong things. He was always making fun of me. I'm the dummy, I'm the one getting hit in the head. Tell me now. Him or me, which one talks worse now? He can't talk no more and he still tries to make noise. I don't care how the world looks at him. I see him different, and I know him better than anyone. Manila don't matter no more. He's finished, and I'm still here."

    I love it. I love that old-school, grudge-carrying meanness. I could learn from that.

    Maybe now that he's gone, the revisionists who have turned him into a chinless punching bag will actually watch his fights and see how tremendous he was

    If Stanley Ketchel could floor Jack Johnson he'd knock Frazier out cold.

    That's the first one I thought of. :bears:


    Damn, he hated Ali. Probably more then any fighter has ever hated any other fighter.

    It fits that James Toney played him in the movie. Toney could hate with the best of them.
