    @ron davis, Well that’s just plain incorrect, even if he isn’t likely to win IYO it’s unlikely an ATG 160lber like LaMotta has nothing to potentially beat Tiger - really, Tiger is probably the sort of guy Jake wants and also give vice versa Tiger is heavy footed and plants to shoot, LaMotta loved that and would counter the hell out of you if you threw rights or hooks - he can look bad at times on the end of the jab, so does everybody when the other guy is playing keep away the idea is to get into range and force them to throw a hard punch you can counter not follow them around trying to catch them off a jab.

    Nate Bolden, beat the crap out of Jake LaMotta, and won a close fight with Tony Zale. Nate was a very good boxer and could hit. But, the fight game is all business they voided giving Nate a shot at the title.

    Yeah, Jake through Marcel down and fell on top of him, injuring his shoulder. That's one way of winning over a great fighter like Cerdan.
