June 5 1949 Willie The Worm Monroe was born. Any occasion to give recognition to the 70s Philly Middleweights. Id love to see the Worm and the rest of that crew fighting nowadays.

Is that from the fight where he beat Hagler? If it is it may be the only shot I've ever seen of that fight.

Thanks KoJoe...

2 additional points have been levied against Collins

one point for reffering to barry when he's not even been on the thread
a second point for not being able to determine if that was Hagler Monroe I,II or III

These points can be used for premium prizes such as public floggings and being chained to a whipping post. Or can be saved up for a full beheading.
