    Galento , well try to " moider da bum " but it wont happen, the Rock prevails before halfway. Tony wasn't hard to hit. and anything Rocky could hit he could hurt.

    Baer could do well against guys that played his game. Guys that had little defence and stood around to trade punch for punch.

    I agree, but Schmeling, Schaff and Farr don't fit this description ;)

    I only remember the Schmeling fight and Max did not try to stick and move, he fought Baer head-on, with predictable results.

    Doesn't change the fact that Baer wasn't only good against wild brawlers with no defense ;)

    Nobody likes a tattletale son. I don't know what 'Baer' is but if it gets him buzzing and he's not bothering anyone thats his buisness.
