    Remember him well, one of Boxings bad boys, a few coulorfull LHs around his time, Hal TNT Carrol, Jimmy The Cat Dupree, Andy Kendal, Vicente Rondon, and the tragic Frankie De Paula, division headed by ATG Bob Foster.

    There are some that would be more likely to get you into one. If forced to choose, give me one that isn't drunk.

    I don’t think Louis would fight him unless he was being paid ;)

    I would plant a huge box of Snickers on the Bar Room Brawlers, and tell Andy Ruiz that they stole them from him. Lol.

    More like he gets into an argument with the doorman or bartender and pushes one of them and gets tossed or just gets pissed and walks away and you’re there all alone.

    Tex Cobb isn’t turning his back on you because (a) to him a barroom brawl is just fun and games and (b) you’re buying.

    I understand that Tony Galento was a Bouncer before fighting Joe Louis.
