    Not enough vid on Gans to distinguish H2H'ness between he and Ben I think. Ben is certainly more swifty than Gans but I do like Gans' lead hook and lead right a lot more where Leonard likes to work the jab.

    I'm just happy we have an obsession where people actually have research projects.

    When I was writing up Sam I found an article that was written behind his losing to Fulton the first time, and to call it patronising...it was unbelievable..."Silly old funny old Sam!" Properly properly yessah nosah. As a rule, the sports press was light years ahead of the editorials, but **** sake, every now and again they blow you away.

    Black, Native, & Irish. Jesus what a lethal combo. No wonder why he's such a tank. The absolute best swarmer ever.
