I'll start..and these 2 quotes arent absolutely exact but very close..use care in doing these..we dont need to piss off anyone for a quote thats not right....

Im not sure how this next one was said, but in the Toney vs Rahman fight, during the tale of the tape, Jim Lampley said something like "Rahman at 238 is solid as a rock, James Toney at 237... is a big tub of goo." I laughed so hard, Im not sure how the whole qoute went but he did say "Big tub of goo."
"Big tub of goo"
hahahhaha!!
No I don't really know who's said that but it sounds like a great qoute, I agree boxing needs that killer instict. I think that instinct is found in everybody except that some people can't let it out or something...
The shits Built in, from WAAAAAAAAAAY back in the day! Sum peeps must hav surpresed it! :boxing:
Yea that's true in amatuer boxing.
In proffessional boxing you've gotta think a few movers ahead though
For me boxings an instinctive sport. But as the quote says Thinks LONG, meaning gotta be a quick thinker, at least thats how i took it! Dont know who said that quote do u bud? Its pissin me off now!
