Yes, Galento beats Norton. No, it wouldn’t be competitive.

    REMEMBER: Galento spelled backwards is Otnelag.

    One thing is certain.

    A Galento win would set back physical culture for centuries.

    ...and Norton backwards spells out "Not Ron". As in Lyle.

    That feels important, somehow.

    YES! And when Ken hits Tony with his best shot, Galento is Not Owt (Two Ton spelled backwards) BECAUSE Norton is Not Ron.

    You spelt 'improve' wrong.

    That’s pretty damn good and important enough.

    The LYLE qualification helped me because I was initially thinking of Ron Stander OR Rednats Nor IF one prefers his early career alias. :D

    What were the odds of Tony’s surname making sense when written backward?

    I think it’s time for you to go out and buy yourself a lottery ticket to continue riding your wave of good fortune.

    Best I can do is scramble The Fat Man into a Tangelo. :D

    Please don’t confuse body shaming with skill shaming - the latter is my angle on this, so I’ve got Kenny by KO 5. Sometimes the better built guy just happens to win.

    I bought more low priced Cryptocurrency tonight so that is almost like playing the lottery. ;)

    As a stan for the Louisian period I disagree. Galento was just a fat dirty fighting size bully. He didn't stink at boxing but he'd probably lose to Jose Luis Garcia.

    Wow Galento was still in his late 20's when he fought Louis. Even though he looked rather like 50+ y.o. man from the nearby pub.

    Galento gets the Quarry/Stander treatment.
