    Another excellent article. I once read that Benny was so good he would internally time the round so that right before the bell rang signaling the end of the round he would maneuver the fight towards his corner so he could sit down while his opponent had to walk across the ring.

    I don't think Ali will make the ten, personally. I'm going to guess Mickey Walker again, then forgedaboud him. But you were right last time!

    Walker is a good shout.

    Just think Ali scores highly in afew of the categories and he did say there was some surprises

    It's coming soon. I'm going to the gym after work, then supper, then final edits, then it goes in. Hopefully it will be up tomorrow or Wed.

    Have I missed the Leonard one then? Is he at 8?

    I think Duran will be at no.6

    You have more fans on the edge of their seats, S, than waited for Robinson at the Garden.

    Definitly! Every single one is better than the one before, so I have very high expectations for the next one :deal
