Word has it that Duran's ferociousness in the ring dwarfed the soft spot in his heart for the needs of his fellowman! I'll note that just a couple of years ago, Duran cried like a baby and traveled to see and accompany the family of his fellow deceased Latin great Alexis Arguello. For as feroucious and vulgar Duran was in and out of the ring promoting a fight of his, its nice seeing Duran caring for the well being of his peers.
I've found that many of the roughest and toughest fighters have good hearts and deep down are some of the best and most caring people in the world.
If anyone was definately not a 'one fight wonder' it was Larry Holmes!! I had him beating Oliver McCall aswell This content is protected
If Sonny Liston ain't going to play ball then Ali is going to be like whatever I'm going to milk the moment for all it is worth then - Jersey Joe Walcott on the other hand doesn't know what the hell to do?!! This content is protected
When it came to his abilities as a referee, let's just say that Jersey joe was a really great fighter...:hey
haha you're not wrong - maybe we're a little harsh on Old Joe the referee sometimes - maybe he just had some simpathies with the situation after all he had his own version that must've play on his mind a bit from the Marciano rematch debacle This content is protected
