I'm going to see Ray Leonard tomorrow night

Great question.

I would ask him who the toughest guy in the gym he's ever seen is.

 

If I was there and my turn came to ask, I think I'd just thank him for giving so much to the sport and entertaining me.

 

Or you could just unzip his trousers and lick his balls:tong

 

Cold-Blooded.Ask him if he likes "Suit and Tie".

 

I'd ask him who is the greatest fighter he's ever shared the ring with and if he ever seriously considered fighting Pryor and how he thought he would've went?

 

They came to an agreement later though.

 

Yes, he was going to fight him after Stafford. Pryor agreed to a $750,000 purse.

 

Or thereabouts. I used to have Everything on Ray Leonard. This wasn't the same article, but mentions their fight:

congrats on meeting one of the biggest boxing figures

 

I didnt know this.

When was that and what happened to prevent it? (assuming it wasnt SRL's retirement)

 

His retina, so yes retirement. He never made it to fighting Stafford in May of '82.

 

The old jokes are the best.Never surprises me that people still bring that up as if Ray ducked him.

I liked when Colin Hart came on.Probably a big reason why he's my favourite mainstream boxing correspondent.Unlike Jeff Powell...

Come back and let us know how it went mate.I'm genuinely pleased for you and definitely not jealous.

I love that you always have that on hand to put this drivel to bed for another night.:good

 

Yeah, I like Pryor but you can't say that a guy who fought Hearns, Hagler, Duran and Benitez was afraid of lil Pryor.
