    Foreman is the lovable preacher but if someone is causing too much of a ruckus he has to show the hand of god, Ali rolls in like the Persian from 300 having spent his exile being trained by Cus

    Notably, it seemed Ali liked his westerns and idolised Clint somewhat.

    On the Frost show in ‘69 on which both appeared as guests, it appeared that Ali might’ve been a bit more star struck than Clint.

    Ali looked even more impressed when Clint proved that he knew how to punch a speed bag.

    @Marvelous_Iron - LOL, true, as per God’s will, Minister Monko’s hands can heal but if spiritually directed the other way, they can very much hurt also - . Monko, of course, being very much an Old Testament guy with some free licence applied.

    An eye for any eye? Hell no. Monko’s creed is: you touch my eye and I’ll take your whole head off.

    Ah, wait for it, that Fancy Dan Jimmy Young, dressed to the nines, has just rode into town on his horse named Palomino.

    Preacher Monko’s eyes narrow wirh due suspicion and wariness. What’s a guy like Young doing in these parts, what does he want?

    To advertise who’s the boss, Monko suddenly wheels around and knocks out the horse tied up next to him.

    Jimmy, still atop his horse, shakes his head smiling softly to himself before doffing his black hat and saying a friendly “Howdy” to a now simmering Monko.

    Lol!
    Greg Haugen wearing a jumbo stetson hat and leather vest rides in on an Appaloosa next to his best friend and renegade Indian Marvin Camel who is riding in on a Quarter horse.
    They Are somwhere in between Tombstone Az and El Paso Tx when they find a small town to rehydrate in (get drunk).
    They both walk through the swinging doors and into the "No Way Out Saloon" .
    "Two Whiskeys!" Haugen demands from the bartender.
    Suddenly another renegade Indian named Henry Armstrong locks eyes with Marvin Camel. With no words spoken they both pull their Bowie knives only armstrong being smaller and quicket finds his mark leaving Camel lifeless.
    Haugen is forced to honor Camels death but realizes he has no bullets for his single action Colt revolver. At this exact time Armstrong realizes he is unable to dislodge his Bowie from Camels chest plate.
    Left with only their fist they both agree what is to be the first lightweight bout in the SouthWest.
    The town assembles in an abandoned barn and Haugen vs Armstrong step into a 18ft empty horse stable to battle fist vs fist, man vs man...Standby for chapter 2 lol!

    By all means Rich. Work in freckled Bob Fitz as the town’s “smithy” also if you want.

    Jimmy Young rides into town looking for George Foreman, he enters a Saloon called Two Ton Tony's, the bartender and owner serves him the drink of the house, it is called the Stink Bomb. Jimmy checks out the surroundings. Playing on stage is a Battle Of The Bands, Ernie Terrell and The Heavyweights vs Joe Frazier and The Knockouts. The third act is Ingo and His Renown Bingo's. Freckled Face Booby Fitz is playing cards with Gene Tunney who hopes to play The Long Count card game with the eventual champion James Buster Douglas in a duel of the fast counts. Another gunslinger by the name of Big Ugly Bear AKA Sonny Liston enters the saloon with his main squeeze Geraldine, Liston walks in holding his Teddy Bears named Marty and Leotis. The Saloon dancers playing here are The Street Walkers fresh from their engagements in Tokyo, Japan, they were accompanied by Mr. Donald King. Another two gunmen enter, their names are Tyson Fury AKA The Gypsy King and Oleksandr Usyk, both begin to chat with the ladies. A bouncer by the name of Chuck Wepner checks both identifications. Freckle Face jumps up, he shouts Where Is That Fake Gentleman by the name of Jim Corbett. Chef Canelo is cooking his specialty steaks for the patrons. A piano player by the name of Floyd Patterson enters with his mentor by the name of Cus D Amato, they begin with a catchy tune, Have You Ever Seen A Dream Walking, Well I Did, in walks is a quick gunslinger known to his audience as Muhammad Ali flanked by wrestler Gorgeous George. Marvelous Marvin Hagler enters the stage singing I am Simply Marvelous, Sugar Ray Leonard sitting with Angelo Dundee starts laughing at him. Greg Haugen wearing a huge Hoss Cartwright Stetson enters the saloon with a Sheriff by the name of Archibald Moore, he has a poster in his hand, the photograph is that of Rocky Marciano. As Floyd begins to play another tune, Corbett starts tap dancing with another fellow by the name of Ray Robinson, just then Haugen fires a right hand punch at another fellow by the name of Marvin Camel, who only smokes Camel cigarettes, Down Goes Camel ! could be heard by the nasal voice of none other than Howard Cosell. Outside there is a horse race between Vicious Victor Galindez and John Conteh. Outside Jimmy Young, The Gypsy King, Usyk, and Big Ugly Bear meet in a gunfight to determine who is the best, Gypsy King kills all three. Jethro Boudine sings at Liston's funeral, Preacher George reads the sermon, all are given respectful funerals on Boot Hill. Ali, the other gunslinger is jailed by Sheriff Moore to prevent more bloodshed, The Street Walkers are dancing on the caskets to the Bee Gees tune Stayin Alive. Tunney beats Douglas in the card game of Long Count. Geraldine accidentally pulls off Cosell's toupee and blows her nose on it during the burials. The Washerwoman takes the toupee and washes it. A new gunslinger has rode into town, his name is Tommy Hitman Hearns, his past victims include Pipino Cuevas, Stone Hands Duran and Wilfred Benitez, riding from the opposite direction is Aaron The Hawk Pryor, his horse has a picture of a Hawk on it's nose, he also is wearing a robe with the inscription in back, Horse Hockey. Waiting for those two is Donald The Cobra Curry, who is wearing two six guns with Cobra shaped handles, he is wearing gloves that are hand puppets of Cobras. The next sequel will have those new gunslingers in them. Those three gunslingers make one last stop before settling in Two Ton Tony's Saloon, they all stop at Foxy Boxy's Ring Girl Brothel to have bed time stories read to them by the Bonavena Dancers.. Give me some new ideas for the upcoming sequels, I would like to hear from you posters out there.

    Very good Rich.

    Though you left out Goldie De La Hoya, saloon/brothel owner, operator and entertainer in all regards.

    One of Goldie’s girls - purddy little Sweet Pea was badly cut up by Iran The Blade Barkley given she made some unsavoury comments re the Blades manhood which made Iran Irate.

    Goldie put together some big $$$ for a contract killer to take the Blade out. Hungry gun for hire James Toneless took up on the offer and he’s just a few days ride away - trouble is a brewin’.

    James calling card reads: Have Food, Will Travel. The emblem on his holster is a chicken drum stick. Every time James sets to mount, his horse quivers.

    Sheriff @djanders is mighty nervous.

    Toneless has also heard about Preacher Monko’s lean, mean grilling contraption - he plans to check it out when he’s in town - per Drs orders, Toneless has been told to shed some pounds stat.

    That’s an entertaining post but no need throw shade at De La Hoya. I think we’ve heard them all by now.

    Really? It’s a lighthearted thread. No shade. Would you prefer I waxed lyrical about Cleveland Williams’ oiled pecs or being hugged by Sonny Liston or the like - have we had enough of that already, perhaps? Dude….some consistency….
