    Like his agressive style...He looks to be very heavy handed from what I've seen of him.

    "Salita, isn't he Jewish aswell? I used to believe Zab was a black jew for many years, but apparently he's a christian now"

    There are no black jews

    There are many. Long list.

    But anyway, Are you going to use a Time-Machine and/or force the Jews back in the ghetto with few opportunities...because this may be the only way to find good Jewish Boxers like the ones you mentioned.

    Other than that, you'll find them Promoting, reviewing your contract, giving you medical check-ups, reviewing your taxes, etc.
    I'm not trying to be stereotypical of the more modern Jewish-American but...the majority of the tough American-Jews are Pre-Word War II.

    Ran Nakash is one tough dude. All time, there were a lot of great Jewish fighters. There was a time when they were dominant in boxing. Like all immigrants they had to do it the hard way.

    Yeah. That is impressive. He was great up until he met those Tough Italian fighters who were able to catch him and nail him a few times :-(

    Seemed like a good guy though. I hear he is going to make a comeback at some point.
