fights and <strong>Jerry</strong>'s style was similar to Gregorio Peralta's style, who gave<br />

Foreman two very tough fights. Foreman was not fully developed as a fighter yet<br />

and Peralta was vastly more experienced. Peralta probably wouldn't have been as<br />

tough a fight for an in prime Foreman however, <strong>Jerry</strong> was a harder puncher than<br />

Peralta and stonger. He would have had a chance agaisnt an in prime Foreman but<br />

I would still favor George in this one.Foreman was not afraid of <strong>Jerry</strong><br />

at all he just didn't want to take a potentially tough fight, which I think a<br />

fight with <strong>Jerry</strong> would have been, and risk even somewhat, a bigger money fight<br />

with Ali. Foreman got the fight with Ali without having to fight <strong>Jerry</strong>, so why<br />

risk the Ali fight?Massimo, <strong>Jerry</strong> was conned into taking the Cramner<br />

fight by some people who said they were going to do a movie about his life<br />

story. <strong>The</strong>y told him he had to get into shape and they convinced him to take<br />

tha fight. <strong>Jerry</strong> only got about 1,000 dollars for this fight. He paid a far<br />

greater cost to his health than this small amount could ever add up to.|<br />

ABOUT RIGHT, JERRY PROVED IN THE LYLE FIGHT HE'D HAVE A CHANCE AGAINST FOREMAN,<br />

YOU JUST NEVER KNOW IF HE COULD BE IN AND OUT ON HIM LIKE THE LYLE FIGHT HE<br />

STOOD A GOOD CHANCE,JIMMY YOUNG & ALI PROVE IF YOU CAN TAKE FOREMAN PAST 5 RDS<br />

YOU GOT HIM.|<br />

of shit. This is my personal opinion !RS-I need you ! What's "<br />

conned" ? I did look for the verb "to conn" in my dictionary but I couldn't find<br />

it !Kent-You speak too difficult sometimes, my friend<br />

!Remember that I was born in Pisa not in Los Angeles ! Have mercy !|<br />

|12/12/03 06:26:15 PM|Massimo|Rome||4||||10|RS-Is "conned" something<br />

about Billy Conn ?|<br />

|12/12/03 07:08:12 PM|Angelo|Washington, DC||funktron@yahoo.com||||10|Massimo:<br />

"Conned" is almost like being tricked or swindled.<strong>The</strong>se guys basically used<br />

<strong>Jerry</strong> by misleading him into thinking that by taking the fight, it would lead to<br />

big, money-making future endeavors. It's a classic case of leeches feeding off<br />

someone else's reputation to make a buck---taking advantage of a good guy. Most<br />

of the fans on this site would love a few minutes alone with these idiots to<br />

give them an idea of what getting hit the head feels like. |<br />

to embellish or say the first thing that came into his head to please<br />

interviewers. After he was beaten by Ali, he said that he was drugged. Years<br />

later he admitted that he had made this up. He had some sort of vision or<br />

conversion after the Young fight and that was very dramatic, too. And more<br />

recently, he said that Lewis was the greatest heavyweight of all time. He<br />

doesn't really believe that, does he ? I have one of his grillers and it is<br />

good, though. Massimo - to 'con' (in the context it was used) is slang and it<br />

means to trick someone into doing something. By the way, the other word you used
