gypsy Oh, yeah, Sugar Ray Robinson...he was awesome...y'know, he did his roadwork backwards? So, everytime I go running, I run backwards and shadowbox...it's a great workout.

gypsy Y'know, I have one of Tony Danza's old boxing posters?
I am also going to inherit my dad's collection of boxing posters and cards, which is quite an awesome collection.

Egbert Leon Spinks bought a pint of Hennessey from me once. That's my boxing story.

Gazza Its weird that a discussion on "Dirty work" has turned into a debate about boxing...

although I guess when you look at the titles of the first two songs on the album, thats only to be expected.

egon do you know of any famous jewish boxers...?

Joey " everytime I go running, I run backwards and shadowbox...it's a great workout. "


I haven't seen anyone do that since I watched the movie " Get Christy Love " ( circa 1972 )

Gazza >Oh, yeah, Sugar Ray Robinson...he was awesome...y'know, he did his roadwork backwards?

Not only that. In one of his title winning fights (Fullmer or Olsen - not sure which, although I have it on video somewhere), he knocked the guy out whilst going backwards. Has to be seen to be believed

gypsy I have the utmost respect for boxers--good boxers--it takes so much stamina. They make it look so easy on TV. But you just get into the ring, and see how out of breath you are after one round. It took me a long time to build up my endurance.
Max Baer had the BEST physique of all the boxers...but he was into boozing and women (like so many of them are)...and it ruined his career.

"Max Baer had the BEST physique of all the boxers.."

Wasn't he Jethro on Beverly Hillbillies?

I heard he took so much acid he scared the shit out of the rest of the cast.

gypsy Yep, "Jethro" is Max Baer Sr.'s son. I think he tried boxing, but didn't have 'it,' so he became an actor.
August 19th, 2004 04:35 PM
gypsy Here's a site I visit sometimes...this guy has all kinds of boxing memorabilia, but it's really expensive. Still, it's fun to look at.

He is trying to open a "Beverly Hillbilles" casino in Vegas

No joke

Ellie Mae always kicked his ass

I bet gypsy is alot like Ellie Mae in many ways, which is good

glencar Carmine Basilio anyone?
August 19th, 2004 08:26 PM
Gazza A fantastic fighter from what I've seen. Had he not been around at the same time as Robinson probably would have been even more highly regarded than he was.

actually, now you mention it - and how about this for getting back on topic - I've a feeling that on the video for "One Hit To The Body" where it shows footage of some boxers, he might be one of them. Either that or it's Marciano. Havent seen it in a while!
August 19th, 2004 08:44 PM
glencar He was a gymnastics coach at my college back in the early 80's. His mind seemed shot by then. Very nice guy.
August 19th, 2004 09:05 PM
gypsy Sugar Ray Robinson was also in that horrid movie "Candy" with Anita...so that is kind of Stones-related.
August 19th, 2004 09:33 PM
Soldatti The "One Hit" video is one of the best 3 videos made for the Stones. The fight on the band never was so well represented as on this video gem.
August 19th, 2004 09:34 PM
Gazza >Sugar Ray Robinson was also in that horrid movie "Candy" with Anita....

as was Marlon Brando.. I guess thats the connection with Keith & Anita naming their son after him..
August 19th, 2004 09:39 PM
glencar soldatti, was "One Hit" a hit anywhere?
August 19th, 2004 09:46 PM
Gazza >He was a gymnastics coach at my college back in the early 80's. His mind seemed shot by then. Very nice guy.

pretty interestin'. he's still alive actually. He was actually a champ at welterweight before he won the middleweight title as well.

Oddly enough, hes from Canastota, the same town where the Boxing Hall of Fame is. Theres a bio here:
