I still remember this song as a kid. haha

 

Body of an American by the Pogues? It's about a fighter at any rate.

 

Some good stuff here. Need to grab some of these.

 

Holy ****, the Pogues wrote a song about boxing? This is a rare overlap of interests for me. The warriors code by Dropkick Murphys has Mickey Ward on the cover and the title track is dedicated to him.

 

I loved Georgie Fame's one. A lot of people forget about that one.

Sun Kil Moon have done a few. Mark Kozelek (their vocalist and guitarist) is a big boxing fan. 'Salvador Sanchez' is one of their best songs.

 

Oddly enough, Phillip Anselmo of Pantera, a huge boxing fan who has written online articles about the sport, has never done a song about it. Pity.

 

Without question the two best are:

Stand and fight - Nigel Benn, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4Ic6k3iuMQ

Y'all musta forgot - Roy Jones Jr, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWIqZKhNY90

"I'm the warrior...that makes you sorrier".......pure poetry. Emotional.
