In making the most outrageous and hilarious excuses.
These are probably my top 2 (paraphrased):
"I was about to knock out Ali but I got distracted because I saw my friend in the audience betray me by rooting for Ali and by the time I got over it the moment had passed"- George Foreman
"I performed poorly because I was scared when my mother gave me a mean look in the dressing room. In the ring, I was still scared and bothered by the look my mom gave me."- Hector Camacho
I would've had Roy Jones talking about not wanting to win because his father would get the credit, but that might've just been totally taken out of context by the writer (Tim Smith I think).
But now, Kermit Cintron has to join this prestigious list:
I hope Cintron was kidding.

“Because the Cotto fight wouldn’t happen until June, I’d like to get a rematch against Sergio Martinez. Some people disputed the draw. Look, the guy wore so much hair gel and moose, that the fumes were making me dizzy. And I still managed to put it on him on only 4 weeks’ notice. Let’s clear the air for good. With an eight week camp, I knock him out. Simple as that!”
