Was Billy Graham As Good As You Can Be Without Being Great?

The Battle of the Bookworms.

 

Yeah..you are right. I knew Graham was in a couple of very controversial "decisions"....thanks for the correct info.

I wasn't suggesting Graham was unique.

 

You know, I guess I'm just weird when I read a piece with holes in it. That piece written by Ron Jackson had me cringing. I rolled my eyes when he said "Graham was one of the greatest middlewights that never won a title". Please, he was a welter. And when he said Graham got the decision against Giardello, only for it to be reversed and reversed again in court. It was of course the other way around. And for the love of God please, Fullmer has 2 'L's'. Ahhhhgh! Why am I so friggin' picky??

 

He was a snowflake, mcvey! :rant

 

Pick, pick , pick.

 

I stand corrected!

 

I know, I've always been like that when it came to boxing. I was recently watching a video of the 3rd fight between Joe Brown and Dave Charnley and Steve Bunce was giving a bit of 'history' on their triad. But when he said that their first fight went 15 rounds and the second fight was stopped in 6 - well, you know I was screaming at the PC monitor.

 

Bunce's voice is so shrill it goes right through me.Steve Lillis actually has quite a bit of modern gen.Buncey is just a mouthy front man.

 

You're right it does come from Joe Liebling!


It must be osmosis

 

No big deal it happens to the best of us.

 

:good

 

Burt, didn't Graham work as a liquor salesman for Charmers over in Astoria after his retirement?
