As far as I’m concerned, Roy Jr in the gold medal match at the Olympics is the worst, most blatant robbery in the history of all boxing, amateur...
Makes you wonder what it would have looked like if Roy Jr had ever been able to get the guy he ‘lost’ to in the Olympic gold medal match into a...
1980s lightweight John Wesley Meekins was so mean he once shot a man for snoring. Wait, that was 1870s Old West outlaw John Wesley Hardin. Never...
