    You sound like a guy irked, SP, prepared to discount an argument before it's expressed. It isn't trading,though.

    The ability to lose every round to Tiger Ted Lowry and still get the decision.

    I feel it's a technique thing. A specific move. Don't know which one, though.

    Not trying ta tick-you-off, SP. Just thought it was an interesting enough point to try to get as many old schoolers to wade in.

    If you were a shylock, I'd hate ta be late with a payment.

    Think it over. Gonna hit the sack now. Will pick it up in the morning. Perhaps I'll be surprised someone's gotten it in the interim.

    I give up...
    I'm probably going to feel like an idiot when you say it for not realizing it.

    I don't know what you're talking about. I never said I had it, and if I did, I must have been blazed out of my mind from a fat blunt. Earliest film I have of Ezzard Charles is 1946. I have film of Archie Moore at middleweight vs Ron Richards.
