    I’ve seen him say he told Tyson, “Get him for me,” but he smiles & laughs a little. Seemed to imply it was light. Maybe that’s just that he gets as much enjoyment watching Holmes get flattened as I do though, who knows.

    So, did Cooney get to **** Arlene Charles instead?

    On a similar note, I heard that Bob Satterfield flirted with Archie Moore's wife and Moore remembered that when they got in the ring and punished him for it.

    That's low class man. I'm sure you know better.

    I could be wrong here but I don't know if Jerry and "charlie" were even still together by the time Cooney fought Norton. I think when he retired she was out of the spotlight. And she loved the spotlight.

    An awful lot of fighters weren’t exactly upstanding, righteous human beings. Is what it is. I can imagine Quarry being vindictive. I can imagine Norton of that era being full of himself and acting like a trolling stud.
