    That is for sure, Gerry Cooney likes his opponents to be over the hill, so that people will say, Ooh- Ahh, what a devastating puncher. Someone should call Adult Protective Services on Gerry, Elder Abuse, victims were Jimmy Young and Ken Norton. Too clumsy for the contenders his own age.

    Ron Lyle as well. All prime, all three of them whip him a new one.

    Gerry Cooney should have picked on someone his own age, he should have left the Elderly alone, Daddy issues.

    What a perfect post.

    sometimes the guy who wins has to show something he NEVER SHOWED BEFORE in order to win a fight. You just can’t bet on that.

    And the 1964 fight is an example of this. Muhammad won because he was able to show something he never had so far.
