What's Your Favourite 1 liner (boxing commentators)

[drh]

Jim Lampley

"That left hook came right out of the craddle."

De La Hoya Vs Mayorga (is round knock down)

[Addison]

Larry Merchant - "He has been Knocked out!"

Lennox Lewis - "Definatly"

This is my vote as well.

[The Surgeon]

Gerge Foreman.

"Tonight the referee is going to be the most important person in the ring, except for the fighters."

Jones Vs Tarver I

LOL Classic Foreman!

[Kball15]

"We knew it could be a candidate for fight of the year, but we didnt know it would be a candidate for fight of the century!"

-Lampley (Gatti-Ward I)


"Nowhere else is sport, do two guys show more courage, more passion, and more sheer guts then what these two guys are showing you now! this is boxing, at its best!"
-Lampley (pacman-morales I)

Everytime i hear those lines i get chills. Great stuff

Howard Cossel: "Down goes Frazier, Down goes frazier!!"

[Verstyle]

"butterfly1964 get off of ali's nuts already"-larry merchant. 2006

[deuce_drop]

i liked the announcers in the jackson vs graham fight, when graham got ko'd by jackson the announcer goes " OH NO, THAT'S WHAT WE WERE WORRIED ABOUT!"

they were stroking graham so much, ****ing funny as all hell.

[GEOFFHAYES]

"The eeego has landed!" has to be the most memorable/special in Britain

It was commentary king Reg Gutteridge referring to the immortal Chris Eubank just after Eubank did his world-famous vault over the top rope on his biggest stage ever, before the rematch with Benn.

[K-Nan]

"Where is your God now, Ali!" Howard Cosell, after the 1st Frazier encounter.

[Kball15]

Howard Cossel: "Down goes Frazier, Down goes frazier!!"

nobody seems to remember the great second part to that line.

Where cossell goes, "And Foreman is as poised as can be in the nuetral corner!"

i like the 2nd part just as much as the first
