Friday Fun - Boxing Limericks

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Mar - 10:21

First topic message reminder :

Saw this idea on another board, thought it was a good idea.

How it hopefully works, I will give the first line of a limerick, and then all you need to do is copy that first line and add the second, then someone else can copy the first two and add the third etc etc

Even with the helpful “somebody has posted in the meantime” feature we should still get too much confusion and duplication.

That has got to be one of the worst explanations of an idea that I’ve ever done, but hopefully you get the gist of it.

Let us begin...

There once was a boxer named Tyson,

Jimmy Wilde, a diminutive chap
He liked to give big guys a slap
He laid them prostrate

He liked to give big guys a slap
He laid them prostrate
They were shipped off in a crate

He laid them prostrate
They were shipped off in a crate
And never again had a scrap

Over to you.

And occasionally rolls up a biggie

With an aria from ' Tosca '
And boiled down to look just like Twiggy

A shambles, and a shocking disgrace

It's best not to leave it to late
For the older you grow
The more you will slow
and it won't belong before the KO

To the press, Larry was never a Mate
The lack of respect he got turned into hate
Though he never got his due
At least some of us knew
That the guy was a top alltime great.

Into the doldrums as fast as one can

Windy agreeing with hitmansam about slapper Calzaghe..

Well there is a turn up...

Old Jeff Lacy
Got a bit racy
Eating up humble pie
Along came a slapper
that looked a bit dapper
who kissed old Jeff's butt goodbye.

For the love of God don't tell anybody, Truss. I'll never live it down.

Good limerick, by the way. ( The Lacy one. )

Grew a 'tache to keep warm
But he was really British because he had British citizenship and fought for the British title.

No idea, but I hope (for Windy's sake) that the last bit rhymes with 'Jim'...

They were even worse once Ryol Li Lee had finished with him

Because the trouble was that although he was quite a good fighter with a very unusual name he had extraordinarily fragile skin
