    RIP Angelo Dundee

    Kinda sad to hear of the passing of a man who trained, debatably, the best fighters in the world.

    Never heard much of his fighting record, or if he ever fought, but he certainly turned out some fine talent.

    Can we call him a modern master? A western master? A boxing master?

    Rest in Peace, and thanks.

    Truly Dundee was a master, par excellence.

    RIP Angelo Dundee.
    I liked his interviews.
    What would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
    It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
    Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.
