    Do you understand what a decline is?

    Noone says he's a bum, he's just not as good as he was when he came back from retirement.

    I haven't seen anyone calling the SRR who stopped LaMotta a "bum" and would be surprised if anyone did. Masterful perfomance that.

    He was certainly past it in his comeback from '55 and on.

    Probably even before the Maxim fight.
