Henry Armstrong, described as 'The Ghost With a Hammer in His Hand"
Joe Louis: before his fight with Max Schmeling: "I am going to represent my race. The HUMAN race."
"I will let my fists do my talking"
------------------------------------------
I'm going RABBIT HUNTING. (Ali, before his fight with the aging Floyyd Patterson.)
------------------------------------------------
One quote I WISH the loser of a fight would say once in a while. "He beat me fair and square" Instead they blame the ref, the judges, or whatever.
------------------------------------------------------------------
George Forman age 35. "I am retiring'
Age 40. I am retiring from boxing.
Age 50, "I am getting too old for this stuff"
Presently, "I might fight again, I think I can still do it"
George, Please come in under 240.
What's he now, 59? Nice guy though. Ya gotta like George Forman |
