    Not at all sad, he's an 86 year old man all pissed up talking to some geek. Most people who have never had any head trauma are fairly batshit by that age, he's very lucky.

    I should have titled the thread more appropriately "How life takes its toll on all of us" or "Athletes of Yesterday Today". I never meant he is sad or he is not doing well. Only he reminds me of my Italian grandfather at 86 and it makes me feel sad to think of life and aging and dying, etc. I misled the posters here accidentally, I wrongly implied that Jake is in a sad state, kinda like Ali is in right now. Sorry!

    Where I live there was an old boxer his name was Billy Morgan, he had many fight's in the ring and in the old boxing booth. Billy had taken a lot of beating's in the ring, people in the pub would think he was drunk but the most i seen him drink was 2 pint's of mild.

    You talk to Billy about boxing his eye's worold light up old billy is long gone so when people talk about La Motta yes age and a bit of drink so what good on him.

    The ultimate bad boy just keeps going! I didn't find it sad! 86 year old and he can still hold a conversation whilst pissed!

    Just imagine dragging your old wrinkly self outta bed, standing in front of the mirror, scratching yourself in all the wrong places and yelling "Im Jake fooking Lamotta". Beats black coffee
