Before even accounting for substantive injury, the wear/tear difference. between a 34 yo and 38 yo can be considerable. Chuvalo only shaved off...
Thanks New. And, for my purposes, I will say that your recall is perfect - which it actually is. :D

And not just untested as a pro. When considering a guy like Stevenson, he was as “pro” and as experienced as any am fighter could ever hope to be....
I’ll be the bunny. To hide his stretch marks?
