"Would have been much more interesting to watch Fritz, Phil Sinder and Wes Jacobs duke it out."

Hmmm, interesting...

10, 16, or 20oz gloves?

Should there be a tournamant OR toss all three of 'em in the steel cage at the same time and see who brings home the belt?

Do you think Hirsbrunner would sponsor the event? Somebody go ask!






*Kudos to Kent and Tom, they are both very fine players!
