Hi to all,
GJC, a true legend on this forum, who would've been a young man during the 40's and 50's, once told me that Zale was a 'ducker.'
Sadly, he passed away before i could quiz him as to why at least one fight vs Robinson never materialized.. Both were prime at 160 between 48-51, and it must have been some serious ducks going down for these two, never to have met in a boxing ring..
Love Zale's fights with Graziano, and the war with Cerdan!. Had a great fight with Billy Conn also, but with no SRR, his resume is'nt quite at the level of the more accomplished atg's, so i'll reserve judgement of Zale until some of our more experienced posters have responded...
Poet, Scott, Jab, Surgeon, Ray Corso.. Look fwd to your views in particular, but anyone who know's a lot about Zale really..
Regards, mm
