My dinner with Conteh · Nov 14, 2008

The should be a poll:
Biggest Wanker in Boxing History-
Ferdie Pacheco
Larry Holmes

Favourite Pacheco moment of wankdom (during one of the Ali-Norton snorefests) "Look at Ali's smothering, he's one of the best smotherers in the game".

Larry-"...and you know George Foreman isn't a nice guy."
Interviewer-"Thankyou,Larry Holmes."

Called him very dumb, and said the toy gorilla that Ali had for the Manila fight was ugly as hell ,and looked just like Frazier,now apart from the racial overtones ,and the fact that Fraziers face understandably has some wear and tear on it now he is 63 and had all those wars ,I thought he had a rather pleasant face when he was young ,it is unpalatable to hear a guy who had the advantages of a college education and the security of a profession for an occupation ,to be casting slurs on a blue collar guy who made his was through life putting his heart and soul on the line.
