Frazier said Bonavena was always sniffing the air, as if to say, "you
people stink." He claimed to genuinely dislike "Ringo," which I'm sure I would
too. I read once where he said he didn't even care if he won, just that he mess
his opponent up.Thanks for the history lesson - I didn't know those
guys!|
|1/29/04 09:59:51 AM|Massimo|Roma||4||||10|RS-Luis Firpo was very famous
( el toro of the Pampas in an Italian-Spanish-English mixing), he fought Dempsey
! But what is really hard to accept is that you didn' t know Spalla ! Ali' yes
but Spalla no ? It's absurd !|
|1/29/04 10:13:32 AM|Carl|TJQF||TJQF||||10|Massimo - Do you tape the boxing
programs you mention? The reason I ask is that ESPN and ESPNCL show different
programs depending on their audience and market, and you may get fights we don't
see here. For instance, I've seen Bonevena bouts and other Latin American
fighters listed on the Spanish language ESPNCL that were not shown on the
mainstream channel. Just wondering, thanks.|
|1/29/04 11:11:54 AM|Massimo|Roma||4||||10|Carl-I use to tape only a
little part of the fights they show ( for istance, Ali'-Lyle, Quarry-Shavers and
two Carnera's fights) for reasons of space.|

Well, I see that Spalla gave Gene Tunney a pretty decent fight before
the fight was stopped. Tunney was a super cool customer, maybe ~the~ coolest and
most patient HW champ. He used to even to "patience exercises," methodically
doing frustrating things, to hone this mindset. Kept his cool when nailed too,
as good as Ali in that regard. In the Long Count, Dempsey didn't go to his
corner after flooring, but didn't the ref begin counting in the Ali-Liston,
while Ali was standing over the Bear, yelling?Firpo knocked Jack Dempsey
out of the ring. Dempsey hit his head on a typewriter, and just managed to
clamber back into the ring at the count of nine. Whew, close call. Firpo had
already been down seven times, and Dempsey KOd him in round two, but Firpo was
the first Latin to challenge for the title. |

I'M BEGINNING NOTICE ABOUT FRAZIER, HE SAYS A LOT OF BAD SH.. ABOUT THE PEOPLE
HE FOUGHT, FIGHTERS SAY A LOT OF THINGS BEFORE FIGHTS, I PROMISE YOU IF BONAVENA
WERE ALIVE TODAY HE WOULD HAVE NOTHING BUT PRAISE FOR FRAZIER, FRAZIER NEEDS TO
GET OVER WHAT ALI, BONAVENA AND OTHERS SAID, HIS ATTUITUDE SUCKS, I VIEW HIM AS
A BITTER EX-CHAMP THAT CAN'T EXCEPT HE LOST 2 OF 3 TO ALI, LIVE WITH IT JOE!!!!|
|1/29/04 01:10:56 PM|Brenda|ca.||thethis@hotmail||||10|No, rest asured i meant
Cauliflower Hall of Fame this is a name they gave fighters when there was injury
to the ears. It would spread out and look like a cauliflower. Sorry for the
misspelling. Some may think this is funny but it is a fact with boxing. Yes in
Ca. L.A. area. I to think this sight is for information regarding boxing and
boxers, to just put smut out there with no facts lets you know that persons
intellect. Why would you even want to pass on unsubstantial smut with no
facts,regarding a another human. The good thing about this is we can spot bs
when we see it. Brenda |

there is no award ceremony for Mike? It is all just a hoax, a joke by some sick
