    Bacon is from the belly, not the back. Talk to me when you get that much right.

    This man poisoned the mind of many with his so-called "Canadian Culture".

    And for the record, I consider Sam Langford a Bostonian.

    Thanks, McVey, nice find. I've seen the film of Burns giving his rankings, but it's nice to get his appreciation of each fighter. Interesting he ranks Dempseys left as the hardest ever, over Jeffries and Fitzsimmons. Seems like he thinks very highly of Johnson.
