    Not to mention Sugar Ray had a dwarf in his entourage. Now that's high rolling.

    Richardo Mayorga is hilarious, he said he was going to drink milk from Oscar De La Hoya's wifes breasts. Making it that much more entertaining watching him get beaten.

    Been around the game since the early '40s; seen every imaginable character: Mickey Walker, Lou Jenkins, Galento, Max Baer, Rosenbloom, Paez, Gypsy Joe Harris,Tex Cobb, and on and on and on, but nobody -- nobody! -- holds a candle to Tommy "Hurricane" Jackson.

    The best way I could describe him (or whatever-the-hell he was ); you'd look in his eyes and see bluebirds. For all the years I was around him, never heard him say anything but , "Wanna shoot rats?" which is what he liked to do at the garbage dump when he wasn't in the gym.

    Used to show up in the gym wearing a full horse's harness taken from a horse that took tourists around Central Park.

    His elevator didn't go all the way to the top, was an understatement.

    Seconded. He also carried a gun around with him all the time, shot his friend in the foot and dressed like a cowboy. Awesome.
