    Lennox Lewis sold it $1million to Don King rather than defend it against Ruiz. Inflation.

    That's true, he wanted no part of the Quiet Man.

    To answer the thread, probably that Mayweather/Pac didn't happen in 2009-2011 when it meant something.

    You can not be serious! Lewis beats Ruiz is 2 rounds just like the South African Botha.

    Say what you want about Quiet Ruiz, but he was not a bum like Botha!

    Malcolm Tann was disappointing as a prospect...I thought he may have had a chance to do something had he been guided correctly.

    Laurence Cole as a ref was horribly disappointing in the calls he made and did not make

    Bowe dumped it so he would not get his ass beat. That was not for nothing.

    October 1980

    Muhammad Ali

    On stage in Las Vegas, Muhammad was reciting a poem about Larry Holmes, and
    what he would do to him when they fought in a week.

    Muhammad was slow-talking and 'slurring' his words.

    It was embarrassing. I felt pity for the man.

    @Bill Paxtom, I won't ask you how old you are but have you seen Ali, Shavers and the many others you refer to or are you a reader of boxing history

    Mr. Walrus,

    How old am I.

    Old enough to see Led Zeppelin play their 'first gig' in New York City.

    * January 31, 1969 ........ Fillmore East

    A boxing historian. Yes you can say that I am. I was a regular at Madison Square Garden
    in New York City from 1968 thru 1980.
