    Joe Frazier meeting up with Ken Norton. Norton says to Frazier "My wife just had a baby" Smokin Joe replies "Congratulations... Whose baby is it??"

    Also remember Frank Bruno (bless him) saying something like "I was in a no-win situation so im glad i won and didnt lose"

    Jake LaMotta: "The three toughest fighters I've ever been up against were Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Robinson and Sugar Ray Robinson. I fought sugar so many times, I'm surprised I'm not diabetic! But I did have him off the canvas once........when he stepped over my body to leave the ring."

    Peter McNeeley on Mike Tyson: "I'm gonna wrap him in my cocoon of horror and knock him out". :patsch

    Trevor Berbwick - Larry Holmes just kicked me in the head.

    Hearing that I though "??? Surely a Heavyweight Champion would use his best tool (his fists)"

    But sure enough Larry cleared any confusion up by then delvering an inch perfect 'DropKick' off the top of a Police Cruiser into trevors face :rofl

    Funniest thing ever !!

    Jim Watt to Adam Smith during the Floyd Mayweather - Juan Manuel Marquez: "Now I know what they mean when they say that only women can multi-task. You wouldn't believe how difficult I'm finding it to commentate on this fight and suck Floyd's **** at the same time."

    He was being honest!

    Benn rated Eubank higher pre that fight than post it. It was just his chin... Benn was dead at the weight on the night.

    I did, too. Eubank looked special at times, coming up.

    A few classics

    Alan Minter providing colour commentary after watching Danilo Cabrere give a spirited performance against McGuigan "What did you expect? He lives in a mud hut with his wife and kids, they bring him over here, put him up in a hotel with hot and cold running water, toilets and a colour tv. He's gonna want some of that for him and his family!" They never used Minter again!!!

    "Sure, there have been deaths and injuries in boxing, but none of them serious."
    -Alan Minter

    Earnie Shavers hit me, man, and knocked me face down on the canvas. I was in the land of make believe. I heard saxophones, trombones. I saw little blue rats, and they were all smoking cigars and drinking whisky.
    -James 'Quick' Tillis

    My girlfriend boos when we make love because she knows it turns me on.
    -Hector Camacho (1989)

    On choosing a referee for his fight against Floyd Patterson - It don't matter as long as he can count up to ten.
    -Sonny Liston

    Herol Graham has turned defensive boxing into a poetic art. Trouble is, nobody ever got knocked out by a poem.
    -Eddie Shaw

    ‘Calling Michael Grant’s chin glass is an insult to glass’.
    -Larry Merchant

    Tex Cobb is finishing a speech in a hall with fighters like Tyson, Foreman, Holmes, Norton, Ali, Frazier, Hagler, Barkley etc in attendance.
    Cobb ends his speech saying 'And i am truly honoured to be in a room with some of the baddest n***ers around!'
    Renaldo Snipes then jumps out and says 'Erm Tex i didnt drive all the way here for you to offend me like that.
    Cobb replied 'Its alright Mr Snipes, i wasnt even talking about you'

    Larry Holmes doesn't hit as hard as Earnie Shavers. Nobody hits like Shavers. If anybody hit harder than Shavers, I'd shoot him.
    -Randall Tex'Cobb

    A reporter was interviewing Mike Tyson and asked him "So Mike they have you fighting every two weeks?" Mike, "No, just twice a month."

    Tyson: "Maybe I'll fade to Bolivian"

    "There's more to boxing than hitting. There's not getting hit, for instance." - George Foreman

    Butterbean [to Scott LeDoux]: "How come my nose is straight and your's is so crooked?"
    Ledoux [to Butterbean]: "Because I fought eight world champions and you fought fifty bums!"

    "If it ain't broke, then you ain't hitting it hard enough."
    Jimmy"Buzz Saw" Busch 1902 Bantamweight contender
