    Oh god how I wish there was a clip on Youtube, but how about during the Olympics when Teddy Atlas couldn't pronounce Beterbiev?

    That was comedy gold.

    The side piece gate post with Paulie and Adrien Broner makes me laugh, two mental minimumweights with an axe to grind

    What I came here for. Easily the most foot-in-mouth **** I've ever heard a commentator say live, to the point that I now suspect Smith may have some mild autistic tendencies.

    What the **** was he thinking? Has anyone ever asked him about this? Because I'm genuinely curious what kind of thought process he has to have to come out with that as an end product.

    Sounds a lot like Kevin Keegan.

    If he seriously thought that viewers might think Bellew's tattoo was a "tribute" to the arena bomber then it's a dangerous insight into his mind.

    Man that Smitty martyr stuff is rough; but man how could I forget this: Miguelito and his trainer uncle evangelista cotto were sitting beside each other on the couch and lampley says:" it's a supreme display of man-love" where does he get that stuff from!?

    Not the most bizarre but one of the best. Problem is I didnt hear it myself, I think I read it from someone here and if true its amazing! George Foreman speaking of a fighter (I think it was Frazier?)- "Some guys their sweat drops pitifully, but his... it just flowed off." haha brilliant. If anyone has the exact quote that would be great

    Foreman: "I have to say, both of these guys look huge for welterweights."
    Merchant: "They're light heavyweights, George".
    Foreman: "for light heavyweights."
