Quotes

• Hank: Tae Bo? Is that that new Oriental way of moving your couch around?

Luanne: Nuh-uh. It's an exercise class where you punch and you kick till you can't think of anything else no more. No, actually, you punch, kick, kick, squat, squat, rest, two, three, all to music, and kick.

Hank: Oh, it's dancing.

Bobby: Huh. That sounds--

Hank: No.

• Luanne: If you were looking at me, I'm going to have to have both of your gym memberships revoked. And I would hate to do that because you both look terrible.

• Luanne: My mama's in prison 'cause she fights so much. Do you think that there's some way her genes could have been passed down to me?

• Hank: Luanne, the kind of women that box don't have 50 stuffed animals on their bed. Hey, why don't you spend Friday night watching one of those movies you like where the people fall in love and then one of 'em dies?

• Luanne: Dear Lord, one of your creatures may be hurt tonight. Please let it be the other creature. Amen.

• Hank: And Luanne was really something. I tell you what, Dale fights more like a girl than she did last night.

Dale: So I bit a cashier? I'm a street fighter.

• Hank: Luanne, I always hoped to give my old boxing gloves from the Y to Bobby but, uh, well, you know. Anyway, I'd be honoured if you'd wear these in your next match.

Luanne: Oh, Uncle Hank. Every time I punch someone in the face, I'll think of you.

• Buck: Getting rich off a pretty lady's even better than sleeping with one. Well, neck and neck.

• Luanne: I'm a fighting French maid.

Hank: Dang it, I thought I made myself clear when I told him no boxing thong. I'm going to go talk to Buck. You need to practice so, get out of that stupid outfit. And for God's sake, don't leave it where Bobby can find it.

• Peggy: Hey! Yeah, you, you big can of beans! You give Luanne here a match! Unless you're scared, huh? Are you scared? Yeah, you're not a champ! You're a chump! Chump, chump, chumpity-chump!

Freeda Foreman: Shut up, grandma-hair.

Peggy: Freeda! Oh, Freeda! Free-hee-hee-da!

Freeda Foreman: All right, you want to fight? You got a fight. And when I get done whippin' up on her, I'm going to come looking for you.

Peggy: What'd I do?

• George Foreman: Hey, maybe there's something you can do for me. How'd you feel about carrying my grill in your shop?

Hank: Oh, uh, sorry, we have a strict policy about that. No novelty grills.

George Foreman: Novelty grill?!

Hank: Yeah. You know, no offence, but your grill is kinda like an iron.

George Foreman: You're calling my grill an iron?! I've been hit below the belt before, but nothing like this.

Hank: I think it's a great product for dieters or little girls who want to play barbecue, but you can't compare it to a propane-powered grill.

George Foreman: Fight's on!

Hank: What? No!

George Foreman: I said fight's on. What's the matter? Smelling all that propane caused you brain damage? That's what it does, you know.

Hank: No! That is not accurate. Those studies were all done on sick monkeys.

• Hank: Uh, Luanne, those fights you had were fixed.

Luanne: The fighters were fixed? Like my puppy?

• Angela: I didn't see you in Tae Bo today.

Luanne: Oh, that's probably because I wasn't there.

• Buck: Hey, hey, Luanne with you?

Peggy: She is not going to show tonight. She asked herself, "What would Jesus do if he were a lady boxer?" The answer? Not show.

• George Foreman: If I could take a punch like that, I may have been able to think of a name besides "George" for all my sons. That gal's all skull and no brains. She's like Joe Frazier with lipstick.
