    Thanks for posting.

    That was ugly. Lamotta holding the rope with one hand and just taking haymaker after haymaker. Brutal. That fight would have been stopped a lot earlier today.

      Definitely would have been stopped earlier today. Isn't holding the rope, illegal now as well?

        He's been mentioned previously but George Chuvalo had a great chin.He was genetically gifted but always to fight in shape.I remember seeing him in the UK on ESPN,taliking with Bert Sugar.Apparently he was never knocked down either in sparring or actual fights.To condition and strengthen his neck, he used to do wrestler's bridges.
        Oliver McCall too was very gifted-him and Ray Mercer.It's a pity they didn't have half decent boxing brains...they could have been outstanding.
