      Charles' resume will impress you, I promise (Among other wins, he is 3-0 with Archie Moore...).

      Let me add that I don't know weather Pea and Charles would have behaved any different than Leonard did, if they were in his shoes. Ray Robinson, who was a star in his time, was known to be a nightmare not only to face in the ring, but also when it came to money and negotiations.

        I wanted to ask you: did Archie Moore become mental later on in his career?

              why do you concentrate solely on post hagler Leonard? he wasn't even in his prime.

                Prime or non prime, he is a bad bad example of a "braveheart".

                What do negotiations and "ducking" got to do with prime?

                    Good thread, however I edited the sentence that stated "Kellerman's a Zionist idiot." That's racism, plain and simple. It's just like saying something like "(Emmanuel) Stewart's a black idiot." See how that works, it's not fun is it?..
