    Jersey Joe Walcott was a guy who learned to fight the hard way, having to fight for peanuts several times a month makes you have to get pretty good at not getting hurt.

    By the time he became a contender, he was already past his best, but he was one of the cagiest, most awkward fighters I've seen - albeit only on old videos - he was brilliant and asking physical questions, setting traps and capitalising on them.

    He was robbed in his first fight with Joe Louis, he draw Ezzard Charles in and onto his hook to knock him out ..... And he completely schooled and chopped up Rocky Marciano for thirteen rounds.
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Good call.
    I remember Bhop bringing up Jerse Joe's name after the Winky Wright fight & was asked about a very cagey move he did to sucker Winky.
    It looked like Hop wanted to turn away, then he turned 1/2 way & caught Winky with what Bhop termed: The Jersey-Joe-Walcott-Shovel-Hook ...

    Floyd Mayweather!! sets up boxing events where other opponents believe they can actually win. but....even if the fighters do win, they are robbed. Castillo 1 and Maidana 1. to Floyds credit tho, those two are the only ones to beat him.
