    'If they cut my bald head open, they will find one big boxing glove. That's all I am. I live it'.

    - Marvin Hagler

    (not exactly articulate - but we know what you are trying to say Marvelous)



    'Sure there have been injuries and deaths in boxing - but none of them serious'.

    - Alan Minter

    (W.T.F.?)

    Haye on Wlad:


    "I'd fight him anywhere, so long as the location comes with a ring and a ref that can count to 10,"

    "By the time I've finished with Wladimir, he won't know where he is anyway."

    "Wladimir has a history of being knocked out by fast punchers, and I punch faster than every other heavyweight in the world. I'm also dedicated, disciplined and ambitious, unlike many of Klitschko's previous opponents.

    "I've got no doubt Wladimir will freeze like an iceberg when I hit him on the chin in Hamburg. He won't know how to react, will panic, attempt to run for cover and then realise big brother Vitali is in the corner mopping up tears with a white towel."

    We'll find that out on the 2nd of July - but I hope he can get the job done.

    I don't know who originally said it, but my mate, Chris Noble said of Benny Horra, with whom he had several 'issues' with outside the ring, "he thinks defence goes around da house." I love it, I've used it a bit since hearing it.

    It would be a lesser thread without this quip.
    I cannot offer authenticity to it's originator but my dad attributed it to Bep Van Klaveren whom Jack Carrol danced a violent ballet around, twice, & convinced "The dutch windmill" Oz was not the place to further his career.

    Beps second, after the 5th "You're doin' fine. He hasn't hit you yet"
    Bep. "Vell you be vatchin' dot referee 'cos sumboody is beatink me up" :D

    LaMotta used that against Graziano... but there's no way in the world that Jake was clever enough to think it up either...

    Jake also said Graziano wanted to fly to the Sun.. but he'd do it at nightime, when it's cooler.

    There was the famous quote from the mid 80's contender from Philadelphia:

    'I see three of him out there'.

    His trainer: 'Hit the one in the middle'.

    'Right! Hit the one in the middle'.

    Anyone know what Michael Ennis said to Hindmarsh last weekend? Because I don't think any of the stuff in that article would set Hindy off like that :bbb
