His genius lay in simply letting his fighters be themselves. Gone but never forgotten.

Great book and he seemed like a rare breed in that he was genuine. RIP.

Sad news. Great legend of the sport. RIP

'The greats are leaving us' :(
RIP Angie

Damn, was just reading this article the other day - Gotta love it: Dundee, 90, calls Ali, 70, "the kid" - New York Boxing Blog - ESPN New York

It's nice that him and Ali always remained close. I thought the jibe about his sex life was hilarious ;D Continued training fighters 'til the end. RIP to a legend and a great man

Nice tribute bit:

And here's me doing usual browsing of saddoboxing then I stumble along this post. Sad loss. First Henry Cooper, then Smoking Joe, then Angelo Alongside Foreman and Norton as the men who defined Ali's career. Sad Loss.

R I P Mr Dundee.
