wait you know Lou Duva? Dude that is so cool!
I knew Lou for many years! I have MC'ed several of his events, including his birthday party's & the unveiling of the Joe Louis Monument in Pompton Lakes, New Jersey, where Louis use to train. I have Ring Announced several of his Pro Boxing Shows. I also brought him to the funeral for Lou Albano and I have been over his house several times as well. The last time was when they had his 90th birthday party back in May. Teddy Atlas, Tommy Brooks and Pat Cooper all attended.Quote:

I know he's either glanced an uppercut or missed but
Check his eyes ,he's cool as, they are glued onto the only immediate threat; Chalkies right arm and you can bet he naturally shifted those feet before the left got reloaded. :cool:
1950's Bantamweight is all the hint you're gonna get gents.
