Heavyweight? I have always been interested in the boxing game; it is one of the few sports where, like chess, there is not an inherent advantage built in for one side or the other.
I got to meet Ron Lyle once; he came to my school (early 1971, as I recall); he was talking about how he was going to clean Cassius Clay’s clock!

thanks for giving me 11 rounds to watch later. I was a heavyweight who should have lost 20 pounds and been light heavyweight.
There was a middleweight guy there who used to toy with me during sparring. He could have killed me if he wanted to. And the weasel trainer used to waive people to bring it on behind the inferior fighter's back!!!! SOB lol.
Puerto rican fighter. Class act.
I used to do six sets of one hundred push ups and sit ups.
Now i can barely sit up without effort or push myself off the couch lol. My aunt says to put a picture of me back then on the Wall to motivate me. I put it up but it's blocked by Twinkies :).
