    Comments Thread For: Don't Forget Donnie

    Might try eating more peanuts, though.

      Overall, above average.

      I don't fault Donnie Fleeman for not remembering all his history, but the writer never had the balls to ask Donnie Fleeman, If he can take photos of all he saw, as a evidence and a reminder to the world, Who is Donnie Fleeman? I feel this is incomplete and need more research from the writer.

          Touching story and well written. I never heard of that boxer, too bad he couldn't tell us some stories.

                Donnie Fleeman could have been a possible contender today in this water downed era of heavyweights. He beat an old Charles that is a great accomplishment cause Charles even when old was no push over. Charles of course one of the greatest fighters of all time.

                  I eat peanuts every day, I think I do, well actually, now I come to think about it I can't actually recall exactly the last time I had some but I'm pretty sure I did.

                  I'd like to hear if Curtis Cokes had some memories, he was a mean boxer.
