    All time poor reffing. The idiot was counting after watching Machen's lifeless body getting beaten on the ropes.

    I'm not sure Machen wasn't badly hurt. He was never the same afterward. I exchanged a few words with him in 1967 and he was a mumbler.

    I kid you not, a guy tried to argue with me one time that Machen was robbed in this fight.

    No he wasn't and no he didn't. Unless you consider pawing with his left a "good jab".

    His jab was a big reason he beat Patterson.

    The stoppage was premature (of death).

    Those things on the front of your face are called eyeballs.

    Use them.
