Holmes vs Norton - What Gene Tunney said!

Seemed a lot more reasonable in that interview lol

 

Tunney sounds delusional

 

He was a psuedo intellect who read some classical literature and history clung to that and made him out to be a philosophical genius boxer who wasn't really into the sport and just tragically good at it oh the poetic irony! The reality is he was a jealous, racist idiot who liked to fight and hurt people like the rest of them. He was not so unlike every other man of the era being a racist but you would think someone so "well" read what understand its implications.

 

Very interesting article. Tunney claims Frazier beats Ali by decision and he was right.

The writer either gave reference to Tunney being slightly punchy or drunk sounding ...

 

He was probably drunk. Again.

 

He died a few months later, to be fair.
What an 81 year old old alcoholic said a few months before dying shouldn't really be held too seriously.
