    As a frequent misspeller, you'll have myriad chances to correct me in the future!

    In Peter Heller's book- "The Champions"? something like that-he interviewed 40plus former world champions, and Arguello was one of them. At the time he was hurting for money and talked about killing himself, saying that he was worth more dead than alive to his family, and that, since he was a fighter that could no longer fight, there was no point in living.

    Some of the best words in the English language are misspelled. That's what separates us from the apes.

    Aaron Pryor always had an amazing chin, i remember in one of his early fights against Leonidas Asprilla, who was noted as a big puncher at the time. Hit Aaron Pryor with flush shots directly on the chin and nothing happened.

    I actually think the reason why he took shots so well, was because he was crazy in all honesty LOL.
