In a weird way that pretty much sums duran up , how else could he or anyone possibly describe the legend!
The commentator ask Alexis Arguello if it worried him when Andy Gannigan knocked him down. Alexis said something like, "Nah, first time ever I get knocked down it scared the hell out me, but I got used to it." I'm no fan of Max Kellerman, but I still laugh about him saying, "The story of this fight is Carlos Quintana hits Paul Wiliams in the face!"
I have always adhered to two principles. The first one is to train hard and get in the best possible physical condition. The second is to forget all about the other fellow until you face him in the ring and the bell sounds for the fight. - Rocky Marciano Too bad he's not around anymore to tell that to those fat ****s who call themselfs heavyweight fighter's like Arreola. :verysad
I do not know how true it is but I read once that someone was impersonating Kid McCoy and the champ walked in and said " Im the real McCoy "
I found both of these really funny: "Where's the chair? I want to sit down." Loughran upon beating the count against Sharkey "Let's go for a walk on the roof?" Simms to the referee upon beating the count against Joe Louis.
