baseball, maybe just because I have never understood the rules of both. Baseball
looks so boring !! We Italian are good at soccer, but we don't win nothing since
1982 ! RS is a smart lady and she is a good English teacher too !|

forgot that you guys are also good at making ruins ! I like rugby, but I don't
know enough about baseball to form an opinion. I sometimes like to watch soccer,
although boxing, rugby league football, and horse racing are what I like most.
Sometimes I spend the entire weekend going from one to the other of those
activities. I raced a horse last year and it kept coming second (like me). She
came second seven times and we could not get her across the line for a win. RS
believes that Duran is the greatest pound-for-pound and I suppose that view has
merit if confined to his lightweight days. He was a two fisted fighter at times
unstoppable. But I have to go with Ali pound-for-pound. To me he is the
benchmark for great fighters - the magnificant jab, ability to take a punch,
speed, courage to pick himself up off the canvass, and he was just so
unpredictable. Just when you expected him to jab, he'd hit you with a straight
right. When you thought he would dance, he'd rope-a-dope. His balance was superb
and he'd even throw great combinations going backwards. Early in his career his
timing and speed were so special that he didn't need big power to knock a guy
out with just one punch. So I have to have Ali on top. There's only one guy who
I think could possibly have been better and that is Joe Louis. I think Ali would
beat him but Louis was so great I can't be certain. Who is your best pound-for-
pound, Massimo ? Gianfranco Rosi ? I wonder whether Koo Koo Clock is going to
stay gone. |

pound ? Most guys say Robinson, but I have seen only about 10 minutes of Sugar
Ray in the ring, so I can't judge him ! I have never seen Carlos Monzon in the
ring ! Let's say that BOB FOSTER is my best fighter pound for pound, just a half
step above Ali' and Hagler. Leonard had a huge class, he was a super champion,
but I prefer Hagler because was more brave and serious in the ring ! Don't
you think that a ( 19-21) years old Mike Tyson would have had a good chance
againsta (19-21) Cassius Clay ? Tyson looked impressive at the beginning of
his career...|

way overweight and wouldn't be ready for a rematch. Duran without the condition
and fire was no natch for alot of top and mediocre fighters he was to small as a
welter or jr. middle or middle but when motivated he overcame that......|

threat to the koo koo clock, i trust no one, but i am beginning to be more
popular than kent, (i know that bothers him) i would trust the quarrys, but none
of the people on this site. duran is not by any means the greatest pound for
pound, i did think he was a cool looking latino, it is kent who afraid to
confront the koo koo clock, because he knows i'm more of an expert on the
quarrys, i have a degree in quarryology, TO ALL OF YOU THAT LOVE THE KOOKOO
CLOCK, PLEASE STATE IT ON HERE, GOOD DAY, koo koo koo koo|

Kent Apple's fan... Am I sick ? Am I crazy ?|

was. Did you know the Quarry's? |
|10/24/03 12:57:07 PM|Massimo|Rome||4||||10|I was wrong ! I have written Kent
Apple's fan but his surname is Appel not Apple ! Forgive me Kent, that wasn't
intentional !!|
