    Which boxer(s) of the past was the biggest party animal(s)? (league format)?

    Hatton? Delahoya? Calzaghe?

    surely Robinson, Duran etc liked to party, who else? im struggling to think

    who snorted the most coke, drank the most etc

    maybe break it down into seperate categories, perhaps make like a league format

    for example, i think Hatton would snort Calzaghe under the table if they were to ever meet in a nightclub

    if Hatton was to meet Oscar? I dunno, toss up right there, judging by the fact Oscar is on that pretentious bull**** tip constantly, he's possibly been sniffing for years

    so who would win in a h2h contests, include your own 'champions', explain why they would win

                  Nah, the people you are quoting, Hatton Calzaghe Oscar etc are Law breakers, involved in VICE, drugs, which kill thousands every year and lead hundreds of thousands every year into miserable addictions and degredation. That's not "living it up".

                  At a guess, my choices would be Max Baer and Jack Dempsey (and Hector Camacho up to a point). Baer lived it up so much that his nickname was "Madcap Maxie". Dempsey, before he fought and lost to Tunney lived it up in Hollywood for 3 years or more. He was basically retired. People don't seem to know these things. Those were simpler and more innocent days.

                    Harry Greb was reputed to be more a womanizer than a boozehound. In fact although i have read much about Greb for many years, I never heard that he was ever a boozehound. He was described by an acquaintance one time as having casual sex, getting dressed, going to thr arena waltzing through 10 rounds and then going back to the hotel room and the girl.

                    He was notorious for this sort of behaviour, and all ther experts talked about it. But not booze.

                    By the way, during the years that those books you quoted mentioned, about Walker, Greb etc. alcohol was prohibited in the United States, and was hard to obtain. had to be smuggled in from Canada. The beer was made locally by Mafia mobs.

                    In fact, President Woodrow Wilson's foolish ambition was a HUGE benefit to the Mafia, and made them what they later became, from obscure Semi-Secret Old Country Italian Societies, to Murder, Drugs and Prostitution Mobs. The Irish and ***s also got into the act in a minor way, with ******** etc. Las Vegas was founded by the ***ish Mob.

                    These Prohibition years inspired the well known, long running TV show.."The Untouchables", which starred Robert Stack as Eliot Ness.
