    One-liners from famous boxers, or just about boxing.

    “Shakespeare? I ain’t never hoid of him. He’s not in no ratings. I suppose he’s one of them foreign heavyweights. They’re all lousy. Sure as hell I’ll moider dat bum.”—Tony Galento

    "That girl is all skull and no brains. She's like Frazier with lipstick." - George Foreman


    One time a news reported asked Foreman why he named all his kids 'George', he replied "Get hit in the head for a living and see how many names you can come up with."

    Similar to the thread on boxing's best quotes started by @Saintpat ([url]https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/best-fighter-quotes.647827/page-3#post-20423053[/url]) but this is more for one-liners/jokes than quotes.

    When Howard Cosell accused Muhammad Ali of being truculent:

    “Whatever truculent means, if it’s good I’m that.”

    Good topic. And thanks for the shoutout.

    I’ll add another. I think it was when Lloyd Honeyghan was getting taken apart by Marlon Starling. His corner ran out of answers. Their advice between rounds at some point:

    “Just make yourself scarce, Lloyd!!!”

    Easier said than done. He could run but he could not hide.
