    Sugar Ray Robinson's son thinks that the second wife had 5 miscarriages due to the beatings. He & Gman are both extremely, unforgivably, EVIL. Gman has been punished fairly - SRR should have been tortured by his second wife with pliers & blowtorch (Marcellus Wallace from Pulp Fiction) and she should have started at the knees. Liston was a Saint in comparison to these too - unlike these too, Liston actually had some real good in him but never got the opportunity or the loyalty from fans that he deserved while he was alive.

    Read that entire article, and if you still stand by your statement then you can kiss my ass. If mccllellan did just that, then I still stand by my statements.

    "He abused his second wife, Edna Mae, so brutally that their son, Ray II, believes it was the cause of her five miscarriages."

    http://www.popmatters.com/pm/books/reviews/40727/pound-for-pound/

    You can say that the author had his agenda or just listed dirt (I don't know - if anything the review indicates that the author lazily & callously dismissed SRR's evil deeds so he could be pro-SRR). Still, this info comes directly from SRR's own son!

    I think alot of people are to quick to believe so called "stories" in the media......These ****ing reptiles need to sell papers........& they know in situations involving animal cruelty as an example they can tug on the gullible masses heart strings............Most of the time its sensationalist bollocks......As I said Im a hunting man & believe me or not I dont like cruelty........You havent got to be cruel to hunt............If G was into his dogs then thats his buisness................but if he was baiting them with curs of the street then thats ****ish & out of order & maybe he was a bit of a *****.......but to say he deserves brain damage while at the sport we all love........still think thats a bit out of order........

    I'm not going to lie though, if I were a filmmaker I would totally rip off that scene of Mclellan running over flamingos in the parking lot laughing his ass off. I'd chalk that up under the "truth is stranger than fiction" column.

    There you go , I hope that makes you feel better - Im sorry but I like using full stops its a habit.
    Just another thought here though , Alot of posters are moaning about "evil *******s" who love the thrill & sport of dogfighting , Im not sticking up for the real cruel ****ers who bait animals but you would be suprised in alot of cases how well looked after "working" dogs are & how much goes into preperation for whatever thier work may be......
    In my case my dogs need to be in the best condition for hunting but In the fighting dog scene it obviously for fighting , What I cant make out is how people on a site where we enjoy watching two HUMANS smash each other until one is either knocked out or stopped or after suffering maybe broken bones , lacerations & internal injuries looses a desicion , Who enjoy a sport where we celebrate "great" knockouts & laugh at fighters "legs going" etc...etc ****ing stc..........What I cant make out is in the next breath these people have a ****ing fit about 2 dogs doing nigh on the exact same thing to each other & in most cases are stopped when one has achived the upper hand...............Think about it the irony is that it was brought up on a thread about how one boxer suffered brain damage in front of a baying crowd , Jesus us humans are fickle..............

    mclelland was a great banger, a great fighter...but a bully fighter..he had benn out of the ring and trapped on the ropes in the first round.....watch the fight, as i have, many times, and you will see the exact point benn wins the fight, the exact point mclelland realises just how hard benn is gonna hit him all night...its the first round, mclelland is trying in vain to take benn out of there with nigel unsteeady on his feet, back to the ropes, in autopilot mode, bobbing and weaving...jim watt doing the itv comentary shouts, 'benns in trouble here, these punches he's throwing are just arm punches...theres nothing in them'...BAM...watt shouts excitedly..'there was something in that one.!!!'.....gerald takes a step back having tasted the hurt benns firepower....and the look on his face shows he doesnt like it...if you dont believe it, watch the fight...it happens just like that....i knew benn had the fight then......he may not have been the better boxer...but benn was in a different league as a fighter.....instinct took over lots of times with nigel, antony logan, lou gent, even de wit and barkley hurt him..but his fighting heart and power got him out of jail...for me, the fight itself shows us everything that is bad and beautiful about our game...two men at the limits of their human endurance dishing out savage beatings to each other, heart and will keeping them going..two men whom history will inexorably link in a primeval, savage battle fighting, ultimately and sadly, to the death in front of a partisan baying crowd.......grotesquely fascinating to watch, almost gladitorial......and im not over romanticising the fight...it was, for me, the greatest fight iv ever watched live...(on tv, but live...)....i had nigel ahead, ie PHYSICALLY winning in the fight at the time of the ko, but the fight scoring about even on points due to geralds two knockdowns...the second knockdown is even more amazing than the first, and for those who question benns chin, i suggest you take a look at it.....it surprises me not one jot to hear that gerald was a shitty person.....anyone who inflicts that kind of damage on dumb animals is a sick twisted man....and im not one of the politically correct treehuggers..i eat meat and have no problem killing my own...but i dont eat meat unless its been organically raised and had a good standard of life, something the petrified lab the g man fed to his emaciated pit bulls never experienced...personally, id think **** all of gagging and throwing anyone i suspected of this kind of attrocitie in with some starving dogs....nothing like empathy to let people see the error of their ways......benn, unfortunately for the g man was his nemesis, his starving pit bull...his oncoming disability was his metaphoric gag...he no doubt experienced the same resigned, helpless fear and pain that lab did.....dont quarrel with karma.......

    as taffy rightly points out, there is a huge difference between genuine dog fighters and people who act like the g man is ALLEGED to have acted...genuine dog fighters keep their dogs like racehorses, well fed and well trained...in a proper dogfight under us rules as i recall, the dogs fight till one of them turns, ie trys to get away...dogs are then seperated and the dog that turned has 30seconds to scratch, ie try and get back into the fray as its handler holds it back...if it does, the fight goes on, if not, its over.....now not every fight is as semi civilised as that as many of these dogs will never attempt to turn so as a result some fights will be long and bloody brutal affairs......a dog that doesnt want to fight wont fight.....only dogs bred for fighting from good stock will actually want to fight, and to continue to fight once started......if anyone knows more about this, please feel fre to correct me, this information comes from a book i owned many many years ago about dog fighting in america.......and the book was completely scathing about people who allowed dogs to fight with no control and no rules and deplored behaviuor like g man is alleged to have shown, setting fighting dogs on family pets and destroying losers...some of the pepole in the book it appeared, loved their dogs more than anything else in their world!!.......i have three dogs as pets, one is a pit cross.....my dogs are spoiled domestic animals so its probably fair to say i suffer from a fair bit of knee jerk reaction when i hear of unspeakable cruelty to any dog....yet morally, two dogs who want to fight fighting for the entertainment of a crowd with rules in place for their best interest is probably no different that two fighters squaring off......i could and would never attend a dog fight...i find the thought of it repugnant..yet i would go to a boxing match in a heartbeat, even when, as the benn mclelland fight tragically shows, i know damn fine it might ultimately end in tragedy...go figure

    Thankyou for the reply big G...............You are right about some of the rules there with dogs too.............Again though it is strange that we think nothing of watching to Humans beat each other senseless for our entertainment but some of the same guys are in fits when fighting dogs or birds are mentioned.............strange.........

    I agree to a point Flux but as with a type of hunting I do with terriers when hunting fox , I cant force them into an earth & I cant make them engage their quarry , It is in them ginetically & to seek out their foe & is the reason for the breed existing.
    A huge percentage of dog breeds are here because they were specifically bred for working purposes without which they would not be here at all , Im not justifying dogfighting but I can understand the time , care & commitment that goes with it , In reference to comparisons between animal fighting & our sport , I still see huge similarities , granted a dog cant tell you he wants to fight but if he doesnt want to fight he wont fight & will be stopped after less than a minute but the injuries , the conditioning , the training the afterfight treatment , the money - all this for the baying crowds who want to see one beat the other those things are identical.Us boxing fans shrug & say "tragic" when a fighter gets badly injured , We whoop & shout when a fighter gets KO'd , We brag when our chosen hero cuts an opponents face to ribbons with well placed shots & revel in replaying rib breaking punches , Some of us then are up in arms when we here about 2 dogs fighting , Honestly I find it amazing & so very full of contradiction.............
