Any truth in the rumor that carlos monzon was not a big fan over training and smoked

cigs a day?Heard of Young Griffo? Or, Nicolino Locche? Griffo seldom, if ever, trained and was reportedly seen--at least, once--to have crawled to the ring apron after having been KD'd, grabbed a drink from a bottle of whisky that was there then, stood up, resumed the fight, and won by decision! His biography in Canastota says, he was also often drunk entering the ring. On the other hand, Locche has often been reported as having sometimes taken puffs on cigarettes BETWEEN ROUNDS! Like Monzon, both are in the Hall of Fame.

I thought it was pretty common knowledge that Monzon hated training and lived a pretty irresponsible lifestyle. Makes his achievements even more impressive in a way. Just shows you how hight his talent bar was
