    Bwoy Basilio looks old and wasted compared to Robinson. When I last saw Rob he looked like a healthy man in his fifties.

    :patschMaybe because Basillio is 20 to 25 years older than Robinson was when you last saw him

    He's in his 80's or something. The guy's a great shape considering he was a tough as nails boxer in the 50's. What's wrong with that guy.

    Yep, an old granpa on meds. All I can say is that Rob obviously got the better docs.

    ??? Because he died first? Ray died at 67 and Basilio is alive at 82. So Robinson had better doctors because he was better off in his sixties before dying than Basilio is in his eighties having not died? :nut:nut:nut What are you talkin about?

    Hell yea.

    It never ceases to amaze me that Basilio is still around in the condition he's in, pretty awesome.

    And yea I deff would love to have Carmen take a crack at me, for me, although sadly it wouldn't be an exactly witty affair, I'm still hoping to at least meet Ali, sooner than later.

    After Froch-Dirrell. I was like 'you knocked out my hero' and he laughed and was like 'with this hand' motioned it towards my chin but classily turned it into a brief, gangsterly embrace.

    That was the same night I told Pascal how to beat Dawson :yep
