Greatest speeches/words of wisdom in boxing

Yep as McKay said Iran Barkley, TV Channel was at a ad break and Vic Andretti got down off apron both fighters waited for TV to come back on live and the bell to start proceedings and Vic just whispered this up at Nigel .

 

Benn vs Barkley was an awesome mini war.

Even though Barkley had been well and truly softened up by Tommy Hearns it was still a pretty impressive seek and destroy mission by Benn.

Shame he didn't stay across the pond a bit longer, he'd have been a big hit I think.

 

Yeah agreed on both accounts BB :good.

 

"Us Brits aren't a bunch of pussies." - Benn after admitting he twated Barkley whilst he was down.

 

"Damn! That "black guy" hits hard." - Ricardo Mayorga after the first round against Vernon Forrest.

"LOOK AT HIS FACE!" - Lennox getting mad at Larry after TKO 6 gate

"I don't hate Lennox Lewis, he made me a very rich man." - Rahman was pretty badass in the build up to the Lewis rematch, but when the real business of actually fighting started he got put in his place and Yank heavyweights have never recovered. Rahman V's Tyson would have been really interesting at the time, it's almost a shame Lennox detonated that nuke on his face.

"I forgot to duck" Jack Dempsey after losing to Tunny the first time.

 

"Many have the talent for movement but not the heart.Many have the heart but not the talent for movement.Bringing the two together is something mysterious,like working on a piece of art.
