He wanted that payday.
Who the heck is Dr. Ruben Garcia? Did he get his doctorate and judging licenses from a cereal box? I don't see how any judge in good conscience...

Abe Simon was a big, strong, huge, hard-punching dude. Just because a prime Louis blew threw him does not mean a thing. Louis was that great....
