    That's the problem, J. He didn't need a reason to go ballistic.

    I'm assuming she isn't jail bait young...and if I saw her I wouldn't need to ask..because I don't really care about the exact age...I'm actually just asking because I don't see him with a women as old as he is..same time I doubt he has the money it would take to pull a 20 year old..I'm guessing maybe 50'ish...

    I don't think he would get angry on that question at all...

    Certain things I wouldn't ask him...but I'm betting if his fiance is much younger he would just use it as a chance to do a little bragging.

    Slightly off topic but does anybody know how much an autographed picture of LaMotta usually goes for?

    This was up in a local diner that also has a bunch of other vintage stuff framed including quite a few iconic Time Magazines (such as the deaths of all three Kennedy brothers, election of Obama, resignation of Nixon, etc.).

    If the owner had been in I would have made an offer on the spot.

    To answer an earlier question - Lamotta's Fiance Denise was I'm guessing mid 40's and she was absolutely stunning - totally!! I don't know whether it's just English girls - but even the nice looking 20-something English girls that were there just paled by comparison IMO - she really looked like she had stepped out of some movie - it seemed a little funny actually - she looked so out of place in dumpy old Derby haha - and she seemed genuinely doting on Jake - PS how much would a copy of the Raging Bull Autobiography cost which has now been signed inside by Jake?? Not that I'll ever sell it - oh and to top everything - got the local Derby rag today and there was an article in it by the guy who was trying to interview Jake when I was in the bar with him and accompanying the peice was a photo of the interview taking place and in the picture was ME!!! HAHAHA I was txting all my mates saying get hold of the paper and check the pic on page 34!!!

    His fiance must be a happy woman with all that testosterone Jake's still carrying in his body. The man's probably a walking Viagra pill, a bull shark in human form.
