Experience and activity is EVERYTHING. Inactivity is a cancer that kills careers. A lot of people talk from their ass on these subjects....
The trainers were lifers; Guys who fought themselves, who learned from the best, and then dedicated themselves to doing it for others. The list...
All kinds of good points. My one quibble: That was loaded. That was so loaded as to almost be telegraphed. Gerry hit like a truck. Top...
So, so true. Well stated. A guy fighting top ranked fighters regularly is doing his job as champion.

I sparred George early on in his comeback, before he became champion. He beat the **** out of us, man. When he and I faced off a bit later,...
A handful, yeah. Wouldn't consider myself one of the best of that bunch, but I will say I did alright.
More to a whole era than the top three, bud. We were mixing it up all over the place. Great fights, well made matches. Only era I wish I...
