whiskey at the age of (18&19), up until about (5) yrs. ago it was always,
"Makers Mark" or "old Grandad". Yo!!, Stevey boy, now you know that the Delta
was, (No Picnic), just as i'm sure were you served was the same. I'm sure that
both of us did our fair share of the fighting. Oil Can, have i ever arrested
you??. I sure do miss Frank Rizzo, now there was a cops cop!!, i'd put Rizzo in
the ring with anyone when he was in his prime, even you Oil Can.......... |

think, is called Mekong Whiskey and it is made from rice and, obviously, named
after the great river. I'm told it knocks your socks off and I'm looking forward
to drinking it if I ever go over there.General Westmoreland died a day
or two ago, aged 91. What is your take on him, having served under him in
Vietnam ? |

happened in Vietnam, I was only (-4) years old in 1968. But I know that that was
a particularly rough and tough war. Nobody enjoyed himself there. Steve, did you
enjoy yourself there in Vietnam ? Are you still missing Vietnam ? I am not
trying to be unrespectful, I am just kidding (even if probably I shouldn't on
such a subject). I have seen the Rambo movies, but actually they don't seem very
realistic to me. Sincerely I don't think a man alone (even if pretty good with
weapons) can beat an entire army. Maybe only Hulk Hogan could.|

usual clutchess Clay held Bonavena like a long lost ant, And not so much as a
warning, Kind of frustrating to watch, he'd been great at the WWF! Bonavena did
a great job and like Frazier never complained. Quarry-Bonavena old topic? I read
John Gerards version, And I agree totally, Gil Clancy trained both, Clancy and
Quarry where going after the title in 73'(champion-GEORGE FOREMAN) and they
would not have took a match with Oscar, if they were not very confident of a
QUARRY VICTORY.JERRY HAD A BETTER "COMMMON OPPONENT RECORD" And beat more world-
rankers 8 to 4 for Bonavena. But its hard to say, Bonavena reminded me of a
Giant Art Hafey, as they loaded up every punch. Little Canadian Art would try to
Ko you with a jab. Read an old Los Angeles times article ON QUARRY'S BROTHER IN
LAW middleweight Mike Nixon, the times said Nixon had everything including a
chin MADE IN a CHINA SHOP. I wouldn't tell Mike that!ha. APRIL 22 1977 WAS
JERRY'S CELEBRITY TENNIS TOURNAMENT FOR CYSTIC FIBROSIS, Jerry looked like a
million bucks. It was in Anaheim Hills I believe. They sure had a lot of big
names, I think Jerry liked the common folk better. I know he could'nt believe
the egos! When he competed in the "SUPERSTARS"|

Ali' was Bonavena's greatest fight! He gave Ali' hell for 14 rounds and a half.
At the end of the fight he was so tired that my mother could have whipped his
ass. But Bonavena was just too tall ("tall" means "wilt") for the WWF. In the
WWF they don't want people over 5'9", they love (the) midgets! Let alone Ali'! I
would bet on Jerry against Bonavena, if Jerry don't get stopped on cuts, he
beats Oscar. Close to call tough(spelling).|

tired that...|
|7/24/05 05:14:13 PM|Noam|same||same||||10|Hi, Jimmy, interesting comments on
Ali hanging on like a big ant to Bonavena. But I have to say that Frazier out
did Ali for hanging on. Frazier fought Bonavena in December 1968. In the
second round Oscar knocked Frazier down twice. Frazier wrote of the first
