RIP. To be honest, I thought it was gonna be De Niro when I clicked on the thread.

95 isn't too bad, not like he really died young.

That's a good life. Anyone who beats the spread had a good life when the funeral is a celebration moreso than a mourning.

"We had big fun while he was here. No need to be sad now that the motherfucker is dead."

[Avante]

JL has to be considered one of the toughest fighters ever, too bad he fought in the days of Sugar Ray Robinson who is in that GOAT discussion.

"Raging Bull" THE movie on boxing. Rocky...the best fiction.

Anyone into boxing needs this book.....The Boxing Register......a fantastic read and a must have.

Some of the names......

Tiger Flowers
The Zulu Kid
Kid Chocolate
Kid Gavilan
George "Little Chocolate" Dixon....the first black to win a world title. Story goes he had over 800 bouts in his career, sometimes fighting twice/three times in a day.

Imagine 100 plus round fights.
