People will find comfort in anything they can in times of tragedy. If it helps, there is no harm in that.
I agree, sorry Mags. X
Funnily enough been watching a few new documentaries on Sonny Liston recently.
The poor bastard was abused from birth, controlled by the Mafia and the only time you ever see him laugh or smile is with young children or old people because they are not a threat when his eyes light up and the windows are the eye to the soul.
Mike Tyson the rapist and the bloke who mugged old ladies is now idolised now with his own fucking podcast.
Sonny had no choice to work for the Mob.
As much as I love Ali the second fight was a dive or fix.
The Tyson fan boys should remember this - time after time they really think that the man Foreman (Foreman ffs!) said was Sonny too strong after all Tyson was destroyed by a nobody like Douglas and then old man Holyfield with heart problems so the endless excuses by casuals who know bugger all about heavyweight history and think Tyson is God are hilarious on Youtube.
As for Foreman...

I love watching their films, cheers me right up.
I love those old Hammer Horror films. Three legends. Peter Cushing really upstaged everyone in every scene he did in Star Wars.
Christopher Lee was great in The Wicker man.
A truly brilliant film and what an ending!
The remake was obviously pointless.
It certainly was (not that I have ever watched it but the reviews from both critics and cinema goers all say it was truly appalling).
I watched it. I like Nicholas Cage, he plays some interesting characters, not this one though..

Edward Woodward was the only person to play that part really....anyone else would have fell short, he (as they say) made that part his own.
Britt Eckland's wall banging was pretty memorable too.
She hated that scene from the back it was not her and she thought the double had a fat arse!
Ingrid Pitt in the tin bath was very interesting to me.

Did she?
I never noticed as I was looking at a couple of others things that caught my eye...
I wish Jonnie the best of luck this time.
