:rofl true that. bert would reckon that cars were better in his day, or that sunshine was brighter. some people literally live in a frozen state of time. bert is one of them.
Vitali an wlad would of beat joe lewis into the ground, so i think primo got not much to offer after that, execpt use of his body for a punching bag
Carnera would get knocked out by either Klitschko. Bert Sugar is a likeable character and I enjoy listening to him and his stories. But I'd take what he says with a grain of salt.
And stupid enough to say the things that he says :nut That is if he actually believes them himself, which I am not completely convinced of. Seems part of his act.
Is it so stupid really?Cuz he was talking about Wlad,not Vitali.I mean the guy got TKO'd by Ross ****ing Purritty...that being said I would favor him to won on points in a 10 rounder and a 12 rounder.
Yes. I am not willing to discuss it. He did not say that so and so had an outside chance of a win, but made a clear statement akin to 'older is better'.
Bert Sugar hates East Euros, 50 years of Cold War Era hatred just hasn't disappeared with the old fool. Carnera was bounced off the canvas like a rag doll against Baer, any number of modern heavies, including both brothers Klitschko, would demolish him.
Quite franky after watching those 12 rounds him saying Young Stribling would have beaten him wouldn't be such a bad statement.It was a EXTREMELY boring fight.
