I don't think anything is toppin RJ's bull**** about his pops. Roy's one of my favorites but WTF. And **** Hatton wit his whole "blame Cortez" campaign.

ok well boxing is a sport where excuses run rampant lol, i cant think of a big fight where the loser hasnt come up with an excuse or implied an excuse......

so what are some of the lamest, funniest excuses you have heard a fighter make after a loss or a ****ty performance?

Wladimir Klitschko his team claimed that vaseline on Wlads legs caused him to "tire faster" against Lamon Brewster and blamed one of his cornermen.


George Foreman still claims he was "drugged" against Ali in Zaire.

Roberto Duran and that lame ass story about eating steak and Ice cream before his rematch with Leonard and getting "cramps" as a result.

[Jupiter Maximus]

Fighters blaming it on having to take a ****!
