    I don't know, I think the drugs, alcohol and prostitutes just caught up with Tommy that night. A bad choice for sure but I think a lot of heavies would have beat him that night, though a first round knockout was extra embarrasing.

    Braddock-Baer was no "hand-picking". He was made no. 1 contender to Baers dismay.

    Presscott-Khan and Morrison-whatshisname (I forget) are good examples.

    Oh, and De La Hoya-Sturm ;-)
