Classic American West Coast Boxing
Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
I'm sure that readers of this thread are surprised at how we so openly and willingly share our more tender side. We are to be commended, if I do say so myself. I have no doubt that if we were brave enough to say all this in front of our better halves that they would agree with us too.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
I recently gave my girl a waffel iron , and as the broom it is a gift that just keeps giving


Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
Here's something else Connie is going to find under the Xmas tree this year,
a molcajete, so she can make home made salsa, no more of that store bought
stuff. I know she'll appreciate it, but I'm just waiting for her to ask how come I
am been so nice to her, I know she is wondering "What does he want that he is
been so nice to me".....

Pay close attention Remy, Frank is a good coach.
If I'd have listened to him a few years earlier I wouldn't have had to go thru so many wives before learning how to train one properly.![[icon_witsend.gif] :witzend:](./images/smilies/icon_witsend.gif)
It seems Charlie has the right idea, too.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
Connie showed her appreciation for me buying her the washboards, clotheslines, pins & bag by making home made albongigas and home made tortillas, I must be doing something right, I think....

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
Worst decision I've seen in awhile:
Mike Jones over Jesus Soto Karass on the Pac undercard.
Joe Goossen's fighter got robbed, I thought.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
"KEPT MAN" Of The Year Award . . .
Yeah, Frank's got that one nailed.
I was thinking, what if we could make a reality TV series about a kept man?
Frank, would you mind a camera crew moving in with you and Connie for a few weeks?
They'd have their cameras rolling 24/7, recording your every move.
It would expose how you live the good life, and you could demonstrate your methods of training Connie.
Do you think Connie would go along with it.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
I think your onto something there Rick. I think a "new " type of reality program is in order.
One change though, I think Frank would be best suited situated behind a desk or podium with a split screen. The other shot would be a camera following around the house recording Connie as she so nicely does her daily routine. (eg. making salsa, tacos, following her to the river and watch as she delicately washes the family clothes over rocks-very traditional ).
Frank can then be seen describing the actions of Connie for all to see and learn.
Woman from around the world, I think can get a real lesson on how things are done properly and efficiently. I'm sure it will be a big hit, so big, that many other woman will want to be part of this new type of programming. May I suggest the title "The Kept-Man Chronicles".
And keeping with Boxing in mind, The final 10 minutes say, Frank talks about upcoming boxing matches and analysis, or post-fight reviews. I think many men would love this type of programming agenda and it just might put boxing back into the forefront of sports again.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
Next up for British heavyweight sensation David Haye is said to be Ruslan Chagaev, the southpaw Uzbekistani who lives and fights out of Germany.
Haye picked off a statuesque Audley Harrison in three rounds in Manchester earlier this month to draw closer to deciders with Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko for the mantle of best heavyweight on the planet. Indeed, Chagaev was stopped after nine rounds by Wladimir last year in front of a huge crowd in Germany, officially on cuts but Chagaev had been down. You can bet your life that Haye will want to keep Chagaev down, and to do the job quicker.
Nevertheless, Chagaev is a short, mobile heavyweight with a solid chin and decent boxing skills. He outboxed and outpointed Nikolai Valuev prior to Haye's own points win over the Russian giant, whom Haye wobbled in the last round. Chagaev also outpointed John Ruiz prior to Haye's nine-round stoppage of the Puerto Rican, whom Haye put down four times. Respectively, those fights tell you that Haye has a definite edge, but make no mistake about it, Chagaev is good enough to give Haye a long, hard night.

Another stiff on the rise is Oxnard's over rated Brandon Rios.
I'd love to see a fantasy match between Rios and Tony Baltzazar at the same point in Tony's career.
The Oxnard La Colonia stable led by the Garcia family are always a cut below the best in their respective divisions (i.e. Fernando Vargas).
My opinion.

Re: Classic American West Coast Boxing
There is talk of this Rios fella' fighting our own John Murray in a WBC lightweight title eliminator. Rios is unbeaten but was held to a draw by somebody called Manuel Perez not too long ago, although he stopped him in a rematch. Murray is also unbeaten and comes forward, throwing a ton of shots. In this country, I fancy John.Rick Farris wrote:I agree, Frank.

Murray is promoted by Hennessy, bennie. if he couldn't get Froch a homer against either Kessler or Abraham, i don't fgiure he's got the muscle to get one for the lesser-known Murray.bennie wrote:There is talk of this Rios fella' fighting our own John Murray in a WBC lightweight title eliminator.

That's true. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen Bob Arum in this country.

I found this 1955 key chain license plate number of one of my old cars as I was going through an old metal suitcase, also found some love letters between Connie and I from before we got married.
