"You know, you dream of fights like this but very seldom do they live up to expectation. This is even more than you can dream of." -Steward during Gatti-Ward 1 "Oh My God!" Steward after Ortiz knocks Berto down.
"oh no, that's what we were worried about" Whoever commentated on Graham - Jackson [yt]OhVi7cH-LaQ[/yt]
I heard one the other day. They show the slow-motion replay of Trinidad landing a left hook, left uppercut combination that was absolutely beautiful and had Thiam staggering around the ring. It really was a beautiful combination and executed about as well as you could have hoped. Well, they played it, and Larry chimes in...".....What god had in mind there was a fighter". Loved it.
"He's got him! He's got him...and I don't think Foreman's going to get up! Oh my god he's won the title back at thirty-two!" Harry Carpenter.
Is it too much of a good thing. or is too much of a good thing, a good thing? Whatever it is, let the thing, begin. I shake my head everytime I hear Merchant say that (prior to JMM-Pacquiao IV)
"Stop it frank stop it. You don't have to let this go on" Jim lampley Gatti-Ward famous round 9. Still get goose bumps when I watch this
Anytime when Steward got excited... like Gatti - Ward. The man just had so much love for boxing, and so much respect for the fighters even if he had no stake in them whatsoever.
"When the nature of the sport is to render your opponent unconscious, there's no such thing as a lucky punch." - Joe Tessitore
He's got him reeling from a couple of those shots, Len! - Joe Goosen referring to Foreman landing on Holyfield during the Battle of the Ages
"It's rounds like that where I think I'd rather be watching tires being rotated." - Larry Merchant during the Ruiz-Golota fight. LOL!
