- Quotes
Reporter #1: Champ, do you feel remorse for your crime?
Drederick Tatum: Oh, yes. Believe me, my god, if I could turn back the clock on my mother's stair-pushing, I would certainly, reconsider it.
Reporter #2: Drederick, ah, what do you think of Homer Simpson?
Drederick Tatum: I think he's a good man. I like him. I got nothing against him, but I'm definitely gonna make orphans of his children.
Reporter #3: Uh, you know, they do have a mother, Champ?
Drederick Tatum: Yes, but I would imagine that she would die of grief.

This is a great boxing parody with some strong humour and character moments.
The writers satirise the various aspects of boxing with a nice little arc for both Moe and Homer. Tatum and Lucius are both hilariously realised versions of two legendary characters of the sport.
It has some very memorable lines and sight gags, my favourites involving the Comic Book Guy, Bart's turn signals, Moe's "office", the 'Raging Bull' style bum montage, and virtually everything that comes out of Tatum's mouth.
For me it's an 8.5/10 but I round upwards.
