    One of the few filmed performances where in a world title, a great fighter is dominated so thoroughly by both skill and power throughout, by a great champion. I'm always in awe when I watch it and am mystified that so few posters talk about this match. I hear more about Ali/Williams. It's shocking.

    Yes, I am the referenced Dr. Ears, yes.


    Especially when considering how little buzz there is about it. I guess people would rather talk about a stinker like Ali/Wepner. :conf

    The question is..."Why aren't there more on Classic?"

    we tried a "lowlight" one time. there weren't enough clips of valuev not dominating competition to last 30 seconds. the project was scrapped immediately

    You're absolutely right, Jorodz, as you are about most non-SRL/Hagler related things. :deal

    So do I, brother. And so does SNV. His debut album had a kickass version of "Let me play with your poodle" as a tribute to Lightnin' Hopkins.

    I have this Album.

    It's my Album of the year and I urge everybody to buy a copy.

    Apparently Kanye West is in talks with SNV about a possible duet.

    "There are no musicians I respect more for their diversity than Lady Gaga, SNV and The Proclaimers."

    ~Kanye West, on Twitter, except it was all in capitals and had no punctuation.
