pissed a river !!!!!!!!!|<br />

|12/2/03 01:53:55 PM|Evan B|Belfast||evanb46@juno,com||||10|Massimo, not only is<br />

the elephant's urination an impressive fire hydrant-like gushing, but their<br />

urine is also very corrosive. In some zoos, you can see cement floors in their<br />

enclosures worn through and eroded by their pissing. Golly, RS, horses<br />

aren't stupid! Maybe you were teasing. Steve, everything you say about<br />

jockeys and more is true. You have a 100-pound man trying to control a 2,000<br />

pound animal in full gallop. Because of their serious and sometimes nasty<br />

competition, fistfights among jockeys are common after races. Laffit Pincay of<br />

Panama was always one of the best fighters. He's about Roberto Duran's age, and<br />

I always wondered if they were friends .. I like Toney a lot, too, but I<br />

think he's reached the last gasp of his career where he may lose it all at any<br />

time. Whatever happened to lightweight champ Pedro Carrasco? He was the<br />

one guy Mando Ramos could not beat, and more of less ended Mando's career. He<br />

has been a stevedore in Long Beach since about 1974, and weighs a solid 200 or<br />

220. I wonder how many guys over the years have chosen him off, Massimo!!!<br />

On the Toughmen, this is an exhibition with none of the discipline or<br />

art of boxing, of course. To me it's depressing. <strong>The</strong>re are a few guys who train<br />

full-time for it, but so what? It's a trash sport. Does anyone remember<br />

Irish Frankie Crawford from the San Fernando Valley, around 1965-1975? Kent, you<br />

probably did. He had a pretty sad existence after boxing. For some reason, he<br />

retired young, at about age 30 or so. Soon after, he was sitting at a hamburger<br />

joint when he was shot and paralyzed. How was it he died, Kent? He was a good<br />

fighter. |<br />

|12/2/03 02:28:24 PM|Evan B|Belfast||evanb46@juno.com||||10|Massimo, qualunque è<br />

accaduto a quel ragazzo grazioso, Alfredo Evangelista? Muhammad Ali ha<br />

interrotto il suo fettucine! (I am asking whatever happened to that pretty boy,<br />

Evangelista. Ali messed up that dude's pasta.) |<br />

|12/2/03 03:11:56 PM|Massimo|Rome||4||||10|Evan B-Mi dispiace, ma l'<br />

unica cosa che so di questo Alfredo Evangelista e' che e' stato un avversario di<br />

Muhammad Ali'. Who can understand, understand... Who can't ( probably the major<br />

part... His problem ! ). Why do you speak Italian ? Are you been in Italy<br />

?I didn't know that elephan's urination was corrosive . Interesting,<br />

even if probably no elephant is gonna piss to my face... But in life you can<br />

never know.|<br />

|12/2/03 04:31:08 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||kentallenent@aol.com||||10|Evan, yes I<br />

remember Frankie Crawford, he was a good lighter weight fighter, featherweight<br />

or lightweight. He lost about his last five fights in a row so that is probably<br />

why he retired. Some fighters are old by the time they are 30 years old while<br />

others are just starting to mature. Crawford was of the first<br />

kind.Apparently he never could cope with life outside of boxing. I am<br />

not sure how he died, other than I heard he was shot, a tragic story anyway.|<br />

(così male!) per honor Massimo, il mio amico e l'uomo più nobile in questo Web<br />

site. La mia prima moglie proveniva da Torino. Potrebbe buttare giù Marvin<br />

Hagler in 2. (I speak Italian (so poorly!) to honor Massimo, my friend and the<br />

noblest man in this web site. My first wife was from Turin. She could have<br />

knocked out Marvin Hagler in 2.)I agree about Frankie, Kent. He fought some<br />

wars. How about Hedgemon Lewis from the same time? What was the best fight<br />

<strong>Jerry</strong> <strong>Quarry</strong> ever put together, in victory or defeat? |<br />

gentili parole ! Sono commosso !|<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|I remember Frankie Crawford very well, I<br />

did not know about how he died, and that he lost his last 5, I hope he too was<br />

not suffering dementia, as so many of the lighter weights have a tendacy to do<br />

(they get hit more, and have more bouts)I'll haveta get ahold of fellow
