[Here Is a neat little collection.] -The referee is going to be the most important person in the ring tonight besides the fighters (During Roy Jones Jr vs John Ruiz) -Generally when there's a lot of smoke... there's just a whole lot more smoke. -He broke his legs. His legs are broken (During Lewis-Grant, Grant gets up seconds later and continues to fight) Foreman: Look at De La Hoya's shoulders Lampley: What about them? Foreman: Look at them. They're massive. Foreman: Antonio Tarver is just as fast as Roy Jones Lampley: Oh I don't know about that Foreman: Oh yes he is, with that uh straight left hand...(followed by awkward silence) -Roy Jones is playing the feinting game and Griffin is benefiting by it (Seconds before Jones knocks him out) -Oh you better look out for those rich guys. They eat Caviar but they sure are tough. I wouldn't mess with those rich guys. (During De La Hoya-Vargas) -All he needs is one big punch (Every single HBO broadcast) -Hopkins is tired now. His back just touched the ropes. (During Hopkins-Trinidad) Foreman: You gotta admit, we're watching this great fight and it was Larry Merchant, who never stopped talking about the rematch, that's why the fight is happening Merchant: You think I brought in these 13, or 14 thousand people George? Foreman: Oh yes you did (While Barrera-Morales go toe to toe in the 12th round of their second fight) -Go get me a sandwich and sit down (To Teddy Atlas) Foreman: These guys are big for middleweights Merchant: They're light-heavyweights George Foreman: Light-heavyweights -I have De La Hoya and his piston like jab winning hands down (While DLH is clearly losing to Mosley) -He should punch him in the chest, saps all of your opponents energy away (Every HBO broadcast) Lampley: Can you believe Jack Mosley is telling his son he is winning the fight Foreman: Oh yes he is (During the last round of Forrest-Mosley 1) -Torres can take Cotto's best shot (second later Cotto knocks Torres down) -Oh there it is!

Everyone talks about this great jab Quartey has, I don't see it (Even though Quartey is winning the early rounds of their fight) Foreman: I don't like the way the sweat is rolling off Jones head Lampley: What don't you like about it? (Clearly confused) Foreman: It's just rolling off...pitifully (During Roy Jones vs Eric Lucas)
George is kinda like the Joe Biden of boxing commentary. I remember him screaming that Holyfield was going to die or have a heart attack during Bowe 3.
Lol those are def funny. Although I certainly don’t think Mosley clearly won the Delahoya fight. As a young man had Oscar winning (need to rewatch it but was devastated then).
I have all the youth of a Spanish fighting bull but watching so much boxing makes mush of all our brains I don't even remember who I scored it for.
I can't remember which one it was, either Oscar or Hopkins, but Foreman was doing his cheerleading for Trinidad and Larry directly challenged him for his bias and Goerge just completely ignored him, a minute of total silence on-air and then George just started talking about the fight again, loved it. But his best moment ever was steam rolling Lampley after "WHERE'S ALLAH NOW?" in Barrera-Prince.
No dice- I'll just have to enjoy the fight all over again gold bit of George early on 1st or 2nd round. "The Prince has to pull it out of his bag of tricks he wants Barrera to be a showman"
The commenter was talking about Biden's susceptibility to verbal gaffes. No reason to introduce irrelevant politicization & hate into the thread.
Honestly, You might be right. But do you think anyone is going to be upset at what I said or even care a little? seriously.
Let’s just cheer for our favorite fighter Brandon. Let’s go Brandon! Lol I understand people’s want for lack of politics though here as maybe it’s their escape from it. But I certainly don’t care.
