    A Goody Petronelli Memory (RIP, Mr. P)...

    ...the last time I saw Goody in person was March 2010 at Foxwoods...I was in the dressing room and Angelo Dundee was in the building and I went and got him and said, "I have an old friend of yours in the dressing room who will want to see you"...and they met up again, more than 24 years after Hagler-Leonard...and they greeted each other and talked it up like long lost friends...I asked them to take a photo together and this is how they posed...I'm very glad I was there to see it (and listen to them as they talked about the old days, etc) and capture the moment...

        In light of this photo being put up very recently as it was, it makes it all the more crazy that Angelo passed away too, just a couple days after Goody!! Life is funny like that sometimes...

            sure did...imagine all they have seen between them? All the behind the scenes moments in the gym and personally with SRL, Basilio, Hagler, Briscoe, Ali, Arum, King, etc etc etc...
