I am not sure what you are asking.

Always nice to read about prime Nelson.

- -Appears blank on my prehistoric 4.0 iPhone.

Summation?

Good win for Nelson who was very frustrating to fight.

I can't figure out how to post a PDF file to the forum so I set up a separate web page and refereed to it by traditional link.

I don't have the tech necessary to transfer PDF to another format. My tech is probably as old as yours.

Good post.

McGovern (a Featherweight) was done at this point. I'm not sure any fighter burned brighter and burned out faster than McGovern.


Nelson might've been a decent fighter, but certainly not in the conventional sense. He is famous for authoring one of the most famous "ducks" in history, by refusing to fight the legendary Packey McFarland.

1: McFarland was considered between lw and ww.
2: you are mistaken Nelson for the Michigan wildcat.

Why are you making things up?

No one with an IQ over 80 disputes that Wolgast and Nelson wanted no part of McFarland. He offered to make 133 day-of the fight, or 135 ring-side. They suddenly got all **** and demanded 133 ring-side or nothing else.

I think they also wanted no round limits, or something ridiculous.

This was also a era where sh.it wrestling passed for Boxing (See: Javk Johnson). Nelson couldn't Box, but he could cuddle for HOURS at a time.

I am not making things up.

I will not entertain or feed your trollish behaviour, so carry on on your own.
