Apollo Creed: This is who I'm looking for. The Italian Stallion.
Jergens: Rocky Balboa? Never heard of him.

Apollo's Trainer: He's a southpaw. I don't want you messing with southpaws. They do everything backwards
Apollo Creed: Southpaw nothing. I'll drop him in three. Apollo Creed meets the Italian Stallion. Now that sounds like a damn monster movie!

i've posted this before but **** it

'when i've finished with him he won't know whether he's british, canadian or jamaican'

frank bruno, at a press conference leading up to his fight with lennox lewis.

 

Cobb was the most aphoristic of them all: "Larry Holmes didn't beat me, he just won the first 15 rounds.


When asked about a rematch against Larry- "Holmes's fists couldn't take another 15 rounds of abuse."


At a convention of 1980s heavyweights- "There are some badass *****s in here."

Renaldo Snipes stormed out, saying he wouldn't have shown up if he'd known he would be spoken about in that way, then Cobb said:

"Don't worry, I wasn't talking about you."

 

Then Lewis responded with the Foreman-esque: "Not for the pantomime."

:huh

 

Well if he did say that, it was a bit classless as Bruno was a first generation Brit like Lewis; his old man from Dominica and his old dear from Jamaica...

 

True, but Bruno lived in Britain and had never emigrated, while Lewis had moved to Canada and had dual citizenship as well as living in LA at the time. Still, Lewis knocked Bruno silly, so I suppose whatever injustice there was ended up being rectified.

 

:rofl Tex always says some funny ****.

 

Thats hilarious

IM so fast that I flick the switch in my room, and got in my bed be4 it turned dark - muhammad Ali

 

Reporter: Tex, should the heavyweight champion of the world have fought against a fat, alcoholic cokehead?

Tex: Hey man, I'm not fat.

 

Chuck Wepner told one of the better ones:

The night before the Ali fight laying in bed, he turned to his misses and said:

"Tommorow night, you will be sleeping with the champ!"

The following night Wepner was about to get into bed, and his misses said:

"What are you doing? I thought I was sleeping with Ali tonight!"
