That’s why they could forge genuine friendships with their opponents. It was a game or contest. Nowadays there is no soul to the game. Just cash. No contest that brings resolution with a pat on the back and an I’ll get u next time. Now it’s just puffed up egos. Archie was GREAT! His fight with Marciano is fun to watch.

I'm almost 29 and I want to be a prof boxer. I was a wrestler previously. I had some doubts about the feasibility of my goal, as I started boxing relatively late, but this man erased my doubts.
