    I was one of the best fighters of my time, who beat some of the best fighters of my time including members of murderers row. In my prime I seldom lost,whilst fighting every top fighter who would take me on.
    No I wasn't Rodney Dangerfield...Who was I ?

    Luf, you nailed it. Jimmy Leto was a helluva fighter who had no luck like his
    goombah Rodney Dangerfield. Leto seldom lost in his prime, whipping amongst others, Charley Burley 1, Cocoa Kid ko and dec., fritzie Zivic 2,
    Battling Battalino, Benny Bass,Chalky Wright. Built like a tank. Saw him after he retired while I was in the Navy. TOUGH looking guy...:good

    WR, don't feel too bad.
    Poor Rodney Dangerfield had it tougher as a little boy. For example when
    baby Rodney took his first baby step, his father tripped him ! No respect:patsch:patsch

    Dangerfield probably wanted to be a cruiserweight....but move on up to small heavyweight.
