What's the greatest quote in Boxing History?

"This guy is costing me money every minute he stands on his feet, pretty soon they are going to say I can't punch."

Marciano on his fight vs Don Cockell.

 

That was hilarious when Zhang dropped that line. Even his opponent couldn’t help but laugh.

 

Nice Mike, particularly Louis’ reference to Galento. Lol.

 

“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”

-Mike "Sun Tzu" Tyson

 

While being IV’d by Jim Gray, Tyson’s reference to his sthpinal issues (= broken back) was very funny -

Also Mike’s well expressed desire to send his opponents to “Bolivian”. - I hear it’s a nice place to visit but you wouldn’t want to live there. Lol.

 

“Bring home the bacon”. Joe Gans, right?

 

Not a humorous quote but it still rings chillingly loud after all these years: -

“I’m the chief second and I’m stopping the ****ing fight!”

Angelo Dundee to ref (and Bundini?) upon pulling Ali out of the Holmes debacle.

 

Before he settled into repetitive cliches, Ali fresh on his feet, making quips was GOLD.

Just a short exchange between Ali and talk show host Dick Cavett. Very funny.

Btw, Ali hitting the heavy bag very nicely. A pleasure to watch in its own right.

I'm too lazy to think bro

 

Not the best phrase for you and for me

 

Mike McCallum after the second fight against Toney
" I thought i won but the judges say i didn`t,so i lost "

 

“If he comes to me imma kill him, if he run away imma catch him and kill him” - Liston

Also Tyson’s nonsensical speech after beating Lou Saverese

 

“My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want your heart, I want to eat his children. Praise be to Allah.”

Mike Tyson calling out Lennox Lewis. Lewis didn’t even have kids at the time.

 

Chris Eubank ' I intend to unveil a new hard man style' before Collins fight.

Paulie in Rocky 4 "Hit the one in the middle'.

Appollo Creed ' I was calm until comrade big mouth opened his mouth"

and the immortal

Mike Tyson : "Look at you cryin like a pxxxy. I'll xxxx you till you learn to love me fxxxxt "

 

It didn't work out too well for Butch and Sundance.
