    I not only enjoyed him as a fighter, but as a tough ref in TV wrestling in the AWA days.

    God bless you, man.

    He was also a very good boxing commentator when he filled in on ESPN. Sorry to hear this.

    Sorry to hear this. Nice guy. I met him in Minnesota just this year. He gave me a signed photo of himself. He dropped Norton a couple times in their fight. I'd like to see that one.

    Sorry to hear this news about Scott LeDoux; only recently have I returned to following boxing news after a long hiatus, and Scottie was a big part of the talent-laden heavyweight scene in the golden days of the 1970s; he gave a lively inerview as well as fought a lively fight; I still remember a Ring magazine profile in which he threatened to outtalk Ali with his "motor mouth" if ever they met up. The current heavyweight boxing scene could do with lively and colorful characters like LeDoux. All best wishes to him.
