    All things going well, you could float the suggestion of managing a one off tour of boxing’s own Rat Pack.

    Even summon cigar chomping Galento from beyond the grave - just for that hard edged, non PC, wise guy vibe.

    I know Ingo could hold a classic tune. Co Duetist, Dinah Shore, loved him.

    Don’t know about Sonny and Joe - maybe they’d be more suited to the rap genre.

    How would Liston and Louis look shuffling left then right in harem/parachute pants?

    Can’t touch that? Break it down!

    I somehow expect I would be too low on charge for that.

    LOL, true. I just wouldn’t let Sonny check my search history otherwise. Nothing untoward there, of course, but you know, it’s private……I wouldn’t want him to see my enquires as to whether he dipped the gloves against Machen, Williams, Folley and Ali. If he saw it I’d just tell him I was on a myth busting mission.:confused:

    Sonny would prob be okay with that - he had a lot of time for The Big Cat. I love the pic of Liston visiting Cleve in hospital after the gun shot wound. Fantastic.

    EDIT: Oops, Just saw at @JohnThomas1 ‘s earlier post in the same regard. Great minds think alike - greater minds think of it faster. Quick draw McThomas.

    I’ll have Pug by my side, breaking down his bullet-proof reasoning on why Williams would’ve won a third bout between the two.

    Oh And when I say by my side, I mean He’s going to be on the left side of me while I run like a ***** :lol:
