    Call Mackie Shilstone.

    In fact, just 30 minutes on the phone with the ever-ebullient health guru has me pledging drastic change to a physical fitness train that’s veered flabbily off track since New Year’s resolutions faded.

    And the 59-year-old’s impact isn’t reserved for over-the-hill writing wannabes.

    Our Monday evening chat was crammed into a schedule chock full of world-class athletic names, including a late-night Louisiana visit from NFL tight end Alge Crumpler that preceded Shilstone’s planned Tuesday flight to South Florida to work with tennis great Serena Williams.

    “When I’m working with a pro athlete I’m not looking to reinvent the wheel,” he said. “You can’t carry the equipment with you, so you have to develop a program that they can take with them that will have the same impact on the road.” [Click Here To Read More]

            yeah, that is what i'm hoping doesn't happen, i would like to see hopkins ko jones around the 9th round, although, that would be toying around too.

            BadBrains, I burned down with HR from badbrains when i was a kid at sunfest in cali, circa 92-93, also with eek a mouse at the same place, good times.


            also, your avatar pic is the funniest f'ing pic ever, makes me laugh every time.......... quality.

            peace.

                I think it will be very competitive. But yeah, good thing they're not my friends, as it would be tough knowing they're both after that KO.

                  Some of the greatest fights of all time happen between great fighters past their prime.

                  I think the slowed reflexes of these two will lead to a suprisingly entertaining fight. They will both get hit, a lot.

                    Mackie is a good promoter.
