I had forgotten about Zale's health in later years....Somewhat ironic given that Zale lived a somewhat monastic lifestyle, did not smoke or drink and was by all accounts a 'gym rat'. Graziano on the other hand, was known to cut a corner (or two) in training at times.....but then again, "Somebody up there liked him".....
OMG............ If the news that's coming through this evening is true.......... What a terrible couple of weeks for boxing, hot on the heels of the Arguello tragedy.......
