with the great Don Dunphy together with Joe Louis and Tony Galento as old men
I love those old "The Way It Was" videos
And at 1:26 of the video.... doesn't the picture of Galento look like the SPITTING IMAGE of a fat Arturo Gatti?
5′ 9″ 230lbs. Bless...

And people shit on the Klitschko's opposition...
I'm sure according to some of the "experts" here Tony would have been a unified champ in today's era. The Klitschko's? Please, he'd moida da bums.
Galento would have seriously fucked up either K2. I have been to his grave in Orange, New Jersey many times.
The main road off Main Street in Orange is called Tony Galento Plaza. He owned a bar down that street since 1931. Before his fight with Joe Louis he went into his bar and reportedly ate 27 hot dogs with mustard and sauer kraut, 4 roast chickens and drank 21 bottles of beer, then drove to his training camp that night and stole all his sparring partners' food and ate that too. Then 2 nights before his fight with Louis he decided to start training at 2 a.m. instead of in the day.
Was Tony the one that was asked by a reporter about Shakespeare and he said he never heard of him but would murder him in the ring?
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
