    Kali Muscle >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Andre Ward

    Everyone who's thinking about Oakland thinks first about Kali. Hardly anyone knows Ward.

    Did a bit of digging and apparently you are indeed correct it was Roy Sr. A book called 'the Dark Trade' erroneously stated that it wasn't RJJ's father who fell to Hagler (maybe the author of the article I read got their info there) but most sources back you up. :thumbsup:

    Yeah i have that book on my phone, great great book. Especially the part about toney.
    I seriously recommend you read it as well as "the undisputed truth" from tyson and "my view from the corner" by angelo dundee

    So MVC, Ward will finally crack his HOME TOWN at the age of 35/36 and become a superstar because the Raiders are leaving.

    That's just embarrassing.

    If you are a genuine superstar then you break through regardless.

    If true then that's pretty sad for them.
    They have my sympathy...
