I just find it hard to believe they tore through an undefeated Cotto & then thought "You know what, we need to cheat against a slightly over the hill Mosley". It wasn't a first time thing.

After the Pacquiao fight he came into my casino & popped over to chat with me. He looked like the monster from the Goonies. One eye was about an inch lower than the other. I don't think I ever saw him again after that as a few months later I moved to Santa Barbara. I hope his eye healed up. I suppose it did.

But yes, he & his wife were just lovely people. A whole lot different from the San Diego Chargers players that used to come in & play the worst table games. Or Allen Iverson who talked like a Dave Chapelle character & would demand that no White male dealers came to his table. Patrick Ewing was a top bloke though. And the bloke who owned the Lakers always flew in by private chopper with two girls (different ones each time) who barely looked 18. He didn't play that huge though. It was mainly for show.

45 wins, and Tszyu was his only world class victory. It speaks volumes as to how poor his record is when you could make a strong argument that Paulie was his second best win.
