BOXING QUOTES
Quotes on boxing from a user's group
.
>My favorite Ali quote of all time:
> > " If I say a cow can lay an egg, don't argue with me. Go get the skillet."
.
I was also appalled when Vinnie Paz or Camacho said "My face beamed with delight as I heard his jaw crack" after breaking an opponent's jaw in a fight.
.
*Even at this stage of his career, he is ready to be heavyweight champion of the world. He throws every punch with bad intentions and if he hits them they will go*
Cus D'amato on Tyson when he was only 16 yrs old.
.
"Philadelphia is the only town where you can see two winos duking it out in some alley, and they're throwing double jabs."
.
Ok, I don't know if this is true or not but it's funny anyway. I don't think it has to do with boxing but it does involve Ali.
Ali was on a plane when a stewardess asked him to fasten his seatbelt.
Ali replied: "Superman don't need no seat belt."
Replied the stewardess: "Superman don't need no plane."
.
One of my favorite boxing quotes is from a guy who was a regular at bar where I was working once. This man, John, was legally blind, but when he was younger, and could see, he boxed some in the army. He once told me about a fight in which he got badly outclassed. Talking about the other fighter he said:
"He had his hands in my face so much that the only time I ever saw him was between rounds."
.
In 'shooting from the lip' where Ali and Cus d'Amato banter about boxing, Ali gets Cus playfully riled up.
Cus says to Ali "I'm going to provoke you into hitting me and it will cost you a million dollars".
Ali quickly replies "Who is going to collect it? You're beneficieries?"

SPORTS MOVIE QUOTES
Quotes about high school wrestling
.
Plot summary for Vision Quest (1985)
.
Vision Quest is a coming of age movie in which high school wrestler Louden Swain (Matthew Modine) decides he wants to be something more than an average high school athlete and sets his sights on a prize that many don't think he can win -- he then sets out to reach his goal alone, without much support from his father or coach. His father rents a room to a young drifter, Carla (Linda Fiorentino). Swain falls in love with her and she helps him stay focused and prevents him from losing sight of his goals. Although a lower-budget film than Flashdance or Top Gun, this movie is similar in theme and style. Madonna makes her first appearance in a major motion picture as a lead singer in a local band performing her hit songs "Crazy For You" and "Gambler".
