    Lou Duva doesn't belong in this company.

      Do you think everyone else belongs?

        Maybe I should have had Kevin Rooney.

          Boy, that drag Queenie is an ity-bitwit, voting for everyone but two entries. Will Dan Hammy do that, or will he vote for Duva and Dundee? Hammy has a rational side though. He may be back to his potent self.

            Again, I don't know how to evaluate these guys.

            I voted for Blackburn because I love the stories I hear about his relationship with Louis. Plus he (besides Georgie Benton,) is the only great boxer on the list.

            (I need to look up Charley Goldman. I am ignorant as to who he is).

            I voted for Futch for the samd reason, 'great relationship' with Frazier.

            I don't like the stories I have heard about D'Amato spoiling Tyson.

            I love Ray Acel's history as well but you got to question his influence when he let Duran enter Leonard II so terribly unprepared.

            Where's William 'Billy' Delaney's name?

              I would not have included either D'Amato or Dundee.

                Hope I did not make a mistake with the name. Marciano's trainer?

                    Understood, Brawny. I wanted to include a couple doubtful candidates who were also very famous. I really only mean 'best of those listed.'

                    I like D'Mato's quotability. He has a few good ones, which cannot be a basis of judgement here.
