Hopkins - 'Dont be surprised if he dies in the ring' This from a guy who hadn't knocked anyone out in 27 years prior to this fight
this wasnt a phrase to sell a fight...but a post fight interview quote... but i am irish anyhoo...go to 10 seconds in here.....maxie baer after the galento fight...talking about busting up galentos mouth.... "he'll have a hard time eating spaghetti now" always makes me smile that one. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH9bdloBRGk[/ame]
my theory in life is destroy or be detroyed, im looking forward to destroying holyfield gomez has trained 8 weeks, i have trained for 8 years and i am not going to lose my title to a part timer (arthur to gomez) he can go out in two ways, on his face or on his back, it's up to him (mayweather to ndou) after the fight i look forward to drinking the warm milk from your wifes breasts (mayorga to oscar)
"Its my destiny to win this fight and become world champion".... .....although i struggling to remeber where ive heard this
"It's MY TIIIIIMMMMEEEEEE!" This content is protected Only because Briggs actually meant it. He may not have won many rounds and it may not have been a very good fight but he surely won a few people's respect for what he did that night. A past it asmatic not just in it for the pay cheque.
I seem to remember Marvin Hagler saying at a press conference something along the lines: 'I want to destroy Tommy Hearns. He won't be able to walk after I'm done with him'. The reporter said 'wow, you must really hate Tommy' to which Hagler replied 'no, not really'.*
