    Foreman would have KOd Chuvalo if the ref had not stepped in to stop it. He was getting battered really bad in that fight. But to his credit, Chuvalo was a very durable boxer.

    Chuvalo wasn't beating Frazier and it was a broken eye socket along with that dangerous cut.

    Chuvalo probably gets underrated on here because these days there are so many people talking about how he's a fascist for some of the things he's said about some things since he retired like about Mussolini being one of the greatest fighters of all time, and stuff of that nature and things. I don't think he's a fascist though. He was just making that point because Mussolini did all that stuff with...well, you know, listen, it's gonna be tough to get all that stuff done with an army full of Italians. They are not the most organized people. They can't even pay attention to the clock because they always be like boning and drinking and smoking and driving all crazy, walking around grabbing on they sacks, running around like "It's time for brunch, let's have seven pounds of food for that, and then we'll have enough room for lunch." But in Italian.

    Edit: I'm sorry, it wasn't Chuvalo who was talking about that. It was my uncle Artemis, who looks a lot like him. I just misremembered. The family has been calling him a fascist for a lot of years. Well, mostly my auntie Mavis has been saying that. Anyway, please stop DM'ing me being all mad that I said whatever. I am not a robot human like the guy from Star Trek who remembers everything perfectly all the time. Sorry. Damn.

    He's a puncher though, don't get me wrong.
