RIP Bert Sugar, even though I never agreed with a lot of what he said (particularly his ludicrous over-rating of Jack Dempsey.) he was a cool guy to listen to and could string a story together like no other.

Mr.Sugar was a old school sports writer first then a boxing fan! He had opinions based on experiences in the sport and was old enough to see the great fighters from the late 30s up till now. I always found him to be a gentlman and the hat & cigar was to draw attention to himself for an effect, his opinions however were honestly his and the man knew the legendary fighters, trainers, managers, promotors and matchmakers which puts his opinions highly above the people who don't know anyone in boxing! HA! Ray.

I don't mind that he hates me. It puts us on equal terms. But I do resent the outright lies about all those great fighters from the past who I supposedly trashed.
