    "He's not getting up, Jim!"

    I thought that was one of the great boxing announcer calls of recent memory. It was simple but spontaneous and just captured the craziness of the moment.

    What are some other memorable calls from boxing commentators that have stuck with you?

            when Roy said Gatti was taking a "heavy tattooing" vs Mayweather.. it was how he said it made me laugh.

                    The RJJ quote as well as the picture of JMM with arms raised above his head are what will define this era of the sport. As a ****posting lifelong boxing fan however, junior gong being every other post in every related thread is what I will remember.
