He had the biggest hands I have ever shook. For my money, he is the number one Heavyweight Champion of all time. What the US Government did to him was a sin and years back, HBO did a great documentary on him. We should have a national holiday for what he did for this country!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Jake Lamotta\u2026<\/strong><\/em> Jake ole Jake. Years ago, Alvin and I were on Miami Beach and Jake being Jake, was pissed off at some guy in a club (name slips me for the moment) on<a href=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53114 \" rel=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53114 \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-53116 size-full\" style=\"margin-left: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Jake.jpg\" alt=\"Jake\" width=\"232\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a> 41st Street and Arthur Godfrey Road. Jake hit on a guy\u2019s wife and when the guy went to step to Jake, Lamotta did an impression of Terry Malloy from On The Waterfront the role Marlon Brando won the Oscar for. Well, Al was in that movie, in a small extra part and turns to Jake and says, \u201cLook Jake, you just made Brando that much more brilliant with that impression.\u201d Jake turns to Al and says, \u201cGood, Brando can kiss my ass he would never step into a ring with me.\u201d Lamotta proceeds to calm down and Al as he always could, defused a situation through his funny irreverent wit. I will never stop saying that I miss my old pal Alvin.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53114 \" rel=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53114 \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-53117 size-full\" style=\"margin-right: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/RR.jpg\" alt=\"RR\" width=\"232\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a>The Chutzpah Award\u2026<\/strong> It goes to Ronda Rousey. I have only seen her in one fight which was her last one, but saw a special on HBO Real Sports that was done on her. This young lady is one tough cookie. She pulls no punches a trait I admire and then backs it up in the cage. She reminds of \u201cTough\u2019 Tony Galento back in the day who took on all comers and lots of times, dropped them cold as he did Joe Louis in their title fight, but Joe got back up and we know the rest is history.<\/p>\n<p>[si-contact-form form=&#8217;2&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Packy \u201cBoom Boom\u201d Goldstein Oy Vay are you going to hear it today\u2026 Well, RSR readers the kitchen that cost me 50k and Sadie designed is coming along nicely.
