    LH,

    Does anybody relieve believe the right hand that Cassius Clay landed on Alex Miteff
    was a hard rocket-type punch.

    I think not.

    Ever wonder why all the boxing clips have obnoxious background music? The worse it is, the louder it is.

    A skinny 188 lb. kid,

    Who, in his last bout, struggled with Alonzo Johnson, and couldn't
    even force Alonzo backwards.

    Uncle Bill Faversham Jr. really knew how to protect his boy.

    On Alex Miteff............"$10,000 goes a long way, for an Argentinian in New York."

    How good was Alex Miteff anyway,

    In his next bout '6-weeks' later, in Long Island Arena -

    He was TKO'd in the 4th Round, by Commack, New York 'club-fighter'
    Ray 'Batman' Batey, a 28 year-old - 6' 1" 190 lb. 'full-time house painter'.

    Batey, with a record of 6-5-4 (3 KO's) - floored Alex 'twice' in the 2nd-Round,
    then put him away in the 4th-Round with a barrage of bar-room right hands.

    Alex Miteff, 'The Batman hit me so hard, I thought I was in Argentina.'

    Ray 'Batman' Batey, 'I don't regard myself as that hard of a puncher. Alex fell down
    from my regular punches. How did he last 6-Rounds with Cassius Clay.'

    miteff came straight in to clay's punch - this doubles the power than a regular punch hitting a stationary target.

    I don't think there is much to explain unless you have evidence rather than hearsay or whatever.

    Miteff was washed up and on the way down.

    Alex Miteff was pretty much done,

    The only thing he had left was a name, and still a bit of a punch.

    He got lucky with Jimmy McCarter out in Los Angeles, 6-weeks earlier.

    He was the 'perfect cannon-fodder'.

    Pepe's you really are getting pathetic and tiresome. Ali had 8 fights fighting a guy who was obviously in decline but was experienced and still a danger for a 19 year old. As the footage showed Miteff was there to fight,there was no
    quit in him he was caught by Ali's chopping right a punch which took out Folley,Williams and Foreman.

    You're too smart,,,,,,,

    To believe that William Faversham Jr. and his LSG Management Team would risk
    their 'investment' in a bout that they didn't already know what the outcome would be.

    C'mon, Ron U.K. ----- Cassius was being 'groomed' with set up bouts.

    Don't you have any idea of who William Faversham Jr. was - He didn't get rich by being
    stupid or taking 'foolish risks'.
