Sorry, Oklahoma RSR readers, but I wish sunshine on you from Miami Beach.

BB said, \u201cI think he is going to come back.\u201d I have to agree with him that I think he is coming back. He will take a low risk fight, but TMT will sell it to the public as high risk like they did the Andre Berto fight. Floyd wants that 50 on his professional record, you can ensure yourself of that fight fans!<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WYkXH5vWqBk\" width=\"180\" height=\"100\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Sergey Kovalev \u2013 Jean Pascal II\u2026<\/strong> <\/em>Am I the only one that can\u2019t figure out why in the hell they are fighting again when most of the fight, Kovalev kicked Pascal\u2019s tukus!

He was a true gentleman who had a funny, but dry sense of humor. Gene really respected the fight game and took no shit off of anyone. RIP Gene.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tony Curtis\u2026<\/strong> One of my tribe he was! Born Bernard Schwartz in the Bronx. He rose to the top of the Hollywood elite and everytime I was around him, he was a real gem to me. I really miss guys like him.

When the ball would drop in Times Square, Al would sing along to Frank doing New York New York and we would laugh for hours reminiscing about years gone by. Those memories will always endure, but my heart yearns for my Pal Al. I know with me in the twilight of my years, I will be with Al in the not so distance future and Heaven better look out. Hey Al, tell our buddy Francis Albert to leave my name on the list for the 8:00 PM show with The Rat Pack.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\" http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=57363\" rel=\" http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?p=57363\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-53427 size-full\" style=\"margin-left: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Pat-Cooper.jpg\" alt=\"Pat Cooper\" width=\"211\" height=\"239\" \/><\/a>The Chutzpah Award\u2026<\/strong><\/em> The Chutzpah Award goes to legendary comedian Pat Cooper a real gem of a man and one funny man who always stood up for what he believed in and at the age of 86, he still does.<\/p>\n<p>[si-contact-form form=&#8217;2&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ynqIr3bh1Wo\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Packy \u201cBoom Boom\u201d Goldstein Oy Vay are you going to hear it today\u2026 I have to laugh, I got off the phone yesterday with \u201cBad\u201d Brad and he informed me it snowed in Oklahoma.
