Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

A two-time world heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medallist boxer, George Foreman made two successful title defences before losing to Muhammad Ali in ‘The Rumble in the Jungle’ in 1974, which has been described as “arguably the greatest sporting event of the 20th Century”. 

He was unable to secure another title, and retired following a loss to Jimmy Young in 1977. He has since become an ordained Christian Minister, author, and entrepreneur, widely known for his promotion of the George Foreman Grill.

Tyson Fury sings American Pie after Deontay Wilder draw



Tyson Fury sings 'American Pie' after split draw with 
Deontay Wilder


Mr. Persnality: Who can dislike a guy who goes to such extremes to entertain fight fans?  

And he was a good sport about the decision.


Freddy Roach has been present at many odd- ball boxing scenes but he was cringing at the Pub-like sing along.

Deontay Wilder reveals he broke his arm weeks before Tyson Fury fight

Wilder is one tuff guy! He was saying his elbows were hurting after the fight concluded. He seems to be injury-prone which has played a role in some of his fights. Against a giant like Fury you would want to be at your physical best.

Bermane Stiverne went the distance with Wilder in thier first fight but was KO'd in the first round in the second fight. Did Wilder learn some of Fury's weaknesses to KO him in the return match?

Teofimo Lopez has been calling for a shot at Vasyl Lomachenko and he may get it soon on the back of this highlight reel knockout of Mason Menard.

Lopez (11-0) celebrated with a running backflip after needing just 44 seconds to erase the American in what is late — but competitive — entry for knockout of the year.

Menard needed assistance leaving the ring.
