Robinson's Ideas & Techniques And Who He Got 'em From

[Mr Mitts]

I agree, especially in red. Candidate only means he is in the discussion at least for a while. I can accept that. Hard time for him to actually be voted GOAT, but he does have numerous qualities the GOAT will have to possess anyway--extreme courage, extreme will, the ability to respond under fire and...

[Mr Mitts]

Some will not be at all surprised, but I was. Chappie seems most instrumental in shaping Robby's foundation and technique, but Harry Wills was too. There is a great youtube video whose link I may not be able to post anymore. . Just in case I cannot, its full title is How Sugar Ray Robinson Trained:...

Speaking Spanish is something I barely do, but I keep a lookout for tips, shortcuts and tricks. My own words in Spanish for: "you must speak very slowly for me to understand," would come out about like: "tu neccessista hablar muy lento para ami a comprende." Excuse my Spanish spelling....

[Mr Mitts]

I think it is a different amalgam for every individual and very subjective and intuitive due to the actual complexity. The criteria are not clearly lain out like dominoes. Great courage in defeat is worth something, but of course you have to beat some of those greats or outstanding fighters along the...

[Mr Mitts]

On a who beats whom basis where each fighter is in his best prime for that weight, I think Holy does pretty well against HW champs of the past. That is not what I am asking exactly, but who you can beat has a lot of intersection with a fighter's level of greatness.

On the subject of PEDs,...

Just don't get your precious bodily fluids be stolen from you.

[Mr Mitts]

He did quite a bit. Someone will bring up Evan Fields, you-know-who, but it is, let us say, valid, germane, and still an open question. I could never question his will.

[Mr Mitts]

It infuriates the fck out of me.

[Mr Mitts]

Parker is sht.

[Mr Mitts]

Figures relating to old purses are seldom reliable. In I908 30,000 was worth 104 million today? I seriously doubt that. Wikipeja gives a factor of 153 times compared to today's currency. Now that is a hella lot less than a factor of 3,466 which was given here. I don't know why people have to bulls hit...

[Mr Mitts]

Lots of athletic ability in one package is not always used for athletics.

It takes plenty of grit, bravery and courage to ascend to the top of Olympic stacking--forgot about that one.

[Mr Mitts]

Ye mozzie religion is about where Christianity was in the 13th century--absolute obedience to every doctrine and precept of the church or else.

[Mr Mitts]

Whew! When I read the thread title I thought it would be bad news but it turned out to be good.

[Mr Mitts]

Mossbacks out!

[Mr Mitts]

I just paid over $1,000 dollars to have a toenail removed. Meanwhile tranimals get free cosmetic operations in prison worth $60,000 that cater to their mental illness. Tranimals are mentally ill, every last one of them.

Neil Young: lousy guitar player shlt singer and mediocre songwriter. The third chipmunk is all he was to me.

[Mr Mitts]

On stinky fights, Hopkins and Mayweather come to mind first. Two guys who could not win without stinking the place up. Never wanted to watch either of them....
