    "I can't see as it's a big deal myself"

    It isn't a big deal. I was just curious what it means.

    I'm with you on the old part. At my age just use old. No other word really applies to my age. But no reason to bring in a German word. I just don't really know what this term is supposed to mean.

    *just one aside on your post on what you're doing after you retired. I found that the retirement years really can be the golden years with time to really pursue interests.

    Many attested to the punching power of Satterfield. To imply everyone was delusional during his time or that his reputation as a huge puncher was unfounded is again another attempt at revisionism. Too much of that going on here that is for sure. Secondly we are talking the best Satterfield not average nor at his worst. Bob had the power to ko any middleweight and that includes Greb who guess what? Was a MIDDLEWEIGHT.

    I meant having alternate names isn't a big deal.
    Yes, I'm fortunate to have the wherewithal to do what I want when I want . My July stay in NY coincides with Carl Frampton fighting at the Barclay Centre in Brooklyn so I'll go to that. Going to a party tonight so I'll miss the Canelo v Khan fight but I'll record it and watch it in the morning ,along with the Pulev v Chisora one.I give Khan a shot against the Mexican with his speed and boxing skills. Pulev should outjab Chisora and set up another title shot imo. Regards to you ,and remember every day above ground is a bonus.:good
