Where did you ever see Packy \u201cBoom Boom\u201d Goldstein say he hated Floyd? For the \u201creading is fundamental crowd\u201d including Floyd, what I did say was this. He is a great fighter, but as a person and his antics outside the ring, I do not condone nor like. So in the words of my buddy Al, \u201cMay you be fruitful and multiplied, but not in those words\u201d. Translation: F to the You on your hate emails!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carmen Basilio\u2026<\/strong> What a tough little SOB he was in his day. Years back, I met him when he faced Italo Scortichini, on January 16, 1954, at the old Dinner Key<a href=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53424\" rel=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53424\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-53425 size-full\" style=\"margin-left: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/180px-Basilio.Carmen.jpg\" alt=\"180px-Basilio.Carmen\" width=\"232\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a> Auditorium in Miami with Al. He fought Italo to a tough draw in that fight and afterwards, Al and I went to his dressing room. Carmen was a fun guy who loved to play around. I remember him coming over to Al and pretending to pull a quarter from behind his ear. RIP Champ.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53424\" rel=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=53424\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-53426 size-full\" style=\"margin-right: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Chance_the_Gardener.jpg\" alt=\"Chance_the_Gardener\" width=\"232\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a>Peter Sellers\u2026<\/strong> I always loved him as a comedian and an actor. Many will say Doctor Strangelove was his finest hour on screen. I will not argue that point. However, in the \u201cBook of Packy\u201d, I think his 1979 starring role in Being There which he was nominated for a Best Oscar and should have won, was his finest hour. If you have not seen this movie, check it out on DVD.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Pal Al (\u201cBad\u201d Brad\u2019s Father)\u2026<\/strong> It\u2019s 1976 and Al decides he is going to try and get his acting career off the ground again. He takes Bradley and all their belongings in his 71 yellow VW Bug and drives from Miami to California in 3 days. Every time they stopped, he would call me Person to Person and come up with the funniest names you ever heard to let me know where they were. One time it was Packy Arizona. Another Packy \u201cThe Waco Kid\u201d. And another, Packy \u201cThe Eagle Has Landed\u201d. There were a few others, but I will keep this column for the most part, PG. I so miss my pal Al.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Chutzpah Award\u2026<\/strong> The Chutzpah Award goes to legendary Italian comedian Pat Cooper. Bagels? Did you say bagels?
