This has got to be hard for Marvin. He was one of those guys who really prized being THE MAN.

Had there been someone else claiming to be the middleweight champ when Marvin was a round?

The fight negotiations would have gone like this.

Marvin: I want to fight you tomorrow

Other guy: In my hometown

Marvin: Fine

Other guy: My brother as referee

Marvin: Fine (starting to steam)

Other guy: My parents as judges

Marvin: (gritted teeth) let's GO already!

Other guy: I get an 80% split

Marvin: GET ME MY GLOVES!
