Floyd Patterson- a lot better than he gets credit for!

I'm not disagreeing with you, I just don't really know much about Floyd Patterson being protected. Who did he duck from the time?

I know the Rademacher thing (which is a really cool part of boxing history to me), Pete ran his mouth and built up so much hype that he talked himself into the fight. I don't think it was Cus' or Floyd's idea.

So he did a Briggs/Haye then. Bet Cus loved it.

Yeah before there was Loma fast tracking to a world title, there was Pete fighting Patterson and Folley in his first two fights. He's still alive too I think.
