Big Punchers


Recommended Posts

Lovely lad Dennis not the sharpest tool in the box which always made him fun to be around !.....He had his moments of success in that fight,the ref was very kind to Hearns as well.....Typical of the determination Dennis lived his life by he virtually begged Manny Steward to train him after the Hearns loss and Manny obviously saw something in him and invited him over to train and the rest is history as they say......I was always a big Hearns fan years ago Dennis got him to sign a big picture that he sent over for me that i had hanging in the gym for years ended up auctioning it off for charity to a good young chap off here !.....Certainly wouldnt put Dennis in any sort of big puncher category but for sheer heart and desire they dont come much bigger.

Baer was actually suspended from boxing after killing one if his opponents, criminal charges were filed against him but later dropped, he was a ferocious puncher.

I seem to remember he was the father of the fella who played Jethro in the Beverley HillBillys (or did I dream it :D )?

 

Cheers, D.
