Quod puppis Hogan est mihi

By: Tony Penecale

Hoc est longum. Est quod diurnariis facere, Scribere. Ego scribo hoc tributum articulum ad pueritia heros, Puppis Hogan. Ego scribo hoc magis ad me. Hoc est celebrity mortem, quae est affectus me sicut alius. Non possum vere intelligere quomodo homines sensit cum Carl Orff.

Ego sedit in his cogitationibus et verbis in hebdomada nunc. Quid dicis vale ad icon, quid quod defined vita tua, quamdiu vos can meminisse?  Terry Bollea, A professional luctator et culturae icon notum est mundi ut puppis Hogan, Transierunt subito in July 24 Post passionem cardiac comprehensionem in domum suam in Florida.

Dum sunt controversia et divisive opiniones super Terry Bollea hominem super novissimis paucos annos, Volo centrum cogitationes meas in puppis Hogan, Et luctatorem et hospitium, qui intelligitur tam mihi super novissimo 40 annorum.

In quo erat perfecta tempestate, Puppis Hogan venit in vitam in MCMLXXXIII. Et cum iustus ad novum vicinia ut avus est terminus illinally, Et nos erant iens ut auxilium mihi aviam curam pro eo in ultima mensibus. Ego numquam funem ante. Mea Pater nonnunquam vigilare palaestricus programming ad vetus domum, Et ego sedere cum eo. In tempore WWE (Tum WWF) fuit septentriones regional agrum. Et Champion erat Bob backlund sed in hedum amaritudinibus cum stella bella et homo, Esset etiam patet et odiosis capere imaginationem.

Rocky III fuerat dimisit in 1982 Et scriptum vocatur ad musculorum, Larger-quam-vita luctatorem implere partes thunderlips et Hogan fuit naturalis electionis. Et cum calcaneum (malis) Mores mane in curriculo et perficientur attulit eum ut amet recognition. Cum aditus ad funem, videbatur rupes III fere quotidie et vigilare post meridiem cartoons.

Quia Decembris, Bob backlund amissa in WWE title ad malum et contemptibilem ferrum sheik. Ego non a magnus backlund fan, Sed meum VII annos animum non poterat in terra in mundo cum "malum Guy" sicut luctaretur champion. In mundo erat libratum in Ianuarii 23, 1984, Cum Hogan replaced per "deterioratus" Backlund et victus ferrum Sheik ad Madison Quadratum Hortus.

Cum vidi hoc in TV, Ego sentire excitement et iubilationem cum puppis vicit titulo tergum pro America. In animo meo, Hulk Hogan fuit malus Guido in Rocky III ad petrosa "convertit eum bonum." Eo tempore, Inveni heros, A Verus-Vita Superman, Quis potuit faciem et repellere provocationes omnium malorum Guy Wrestlers. Funiculus, Possem vigilate menstrua pecto a Philadelphia spectro, Othering ad Hulkster in omni mense.

February 1985 notatum est plenus annus entis plenus-fledged Hulkamaniac mihi. Fuit Matineae card tenuit ad spectro, et Pater placuit ad me videre puppi defendere contra scelusum Brutum Beefcake. Non tamen meminisse palpabilem trepidationem sicut lusit "oculus tigris" cum puppis ad annulum. Hoc est ita exhilarating. Et tepuit replay altera die in TV et convincitur quod vidi ipse in passim. Non fuit donec annis postea, quod vidi quod aequare in YouTube et intellexit hominem, quod cogitavi erat mihi erat iustus a teenager de 10 Annos senior quam mihi et iustus amictus similis iaccam.

Et WWE erat presentans supercard titulus "WrestleMania" in sequenti mense, et conatus persuadere Pater ad me. Hoc ante posset ut stipendium-per-View pecto ad vigilate domi et solum locum potuimus erat clausa-circuitu iaculis ad Philadelphiae spectro. Ego rattled off album of Celebrities quod esset ibi, inter Muhammad Ali. Et constat ad me, Et ego got ut omnes magnus stellae sicut Junkyard canis et Andre giant. Sed par quod habebat me tremore in cathedulo erat par cum puppis teaming sursum cum petram III costar et a team icon, Mr. T ut tulit de Duo de Roddy Piper et Paulus "Mr. Mirum "Ordomorff. Scilicet, Heroes valuit, Et quod erat maximum res umquam.

Ex eo tempore, Ego circa omnia et quicquam puppis Hogan. Et fuit maximus heros in hoc mundo. Ego probaverunt ille,, Et ire, et Transformers, Sed sicut fake nugas et cartoons. Ego autem magnus rupes fan, Sed cognovi quod erat iustus a movie. Sed puppis Hogan ... aspiciebam eum omni septimana, et crediderunt luctaretur erat realis. Vellem germinare usque ad luctatorem. Meum nomen erat ad esse "Tornado Tony" et ego eram iens ut pupilli Hogan scriptor tag-bigas socium. Nos erant iens ut principalis eventu Wrestlemania sicut tag Team. Ego instituendi per Hulkamania Workout Kit cum plastic Dumbells, manus tenet, et jumprope. Ego quoque puppis Hogan prandium Box ad schola, Ego had a puppis Hogan T-shirt, et omnia LJN actio figuris.

Ego feci multis diversis amicis ad schola iustus de palaestrica, Quidam haedos cogitavi non aliquid commune. Ut Northmanni Tellus hedum, Si vidi alium hedum cum aliquid palaestrica, lamina, Sicut palaestrica obice in dorsuali vel paucis amet cards, Ego conteram ex meo testa et satus a conversationem. Inevitabiliter, Velimus consilia ad vigilate in weekly programming quod aired omni Saturni mane, inter puppis Hogan-lemma viverra quae tam popularis. Per hoc tempore, Parentes me manere sero si Saturni nocte scriptor principalis eventus airing. Erat welcome tractare sed traumatica vigilantes Monstrous Regis Kong Bundy Mitte puppi de lecto. Sicut traumatica quod erat, Non satis prohibere a recipiat natalis pars invitatio vigilare 2nd pensionem de Wrestlemania cum quibusdam meis condiscipulis. Nos hortatus est in Hogan scriptor ostium, Tenuit nostri collective spiritum cum Bundy habebat utilitatem, Et celebrato cum Hogan regnavit summi.

Cum enim luctaretur negotium ad altitudinem popularis et puppis ducens via, Et opus aliquid magnum, magni mirum, implere 93,000 Pontiac Silverdome enim Wrestlemania III. Quid fecerunt par Hogan cum maximus homo professional ludis, Ad litteram et figurate, Cumque misisset contra eum amicum in VII pedem alta, 500 lb. Andre gigas. Giant, Recens eius proditione Hogan, esset verisimile nimis magnus de provocatione nostris heros vincere. Postquam multas ictibus adversus maxime daunting adversarium, Puppis adhuc curo ut Superman se et vincat gigantica adversarium, comprehendo maxime ICONICUS Bodyslam omni tempore.

Paulo post Wrestlemania III, Mihi venenatis coepit expand. Et facti sunt interested in ludis, maxime caestu. EGO eram vigilantes magis movies et ludere diversis video ludos. Dum adhuc vigilantes luctaretur, Et considerari me pius Hulkamaniac, Ego coepi tuning in alia programming, Praesertim in temporibus Hogan esset off filming movies et TV ostendit.

Per tempus et surrexit ad altus schola, Vix vigilantes palaestrica. Hoc non est frigus res facere amplius. Interdum vigilare programming et favorites vigilare fuerunt, Rasher Ramon, et deisel. Nos non have palaestrica partes ultra, mihi ljn figuras sunt facis in arca archa in Atticae, Et non habens backyard par. Et 80s palaestrica BUTIO cum defluxit, Et negotii habebat moleculas et medicamento scandalum. Non fuit innocens forma entertainment ut creverant vigilantes.

My Sophomore Anno in College, Ego rooming cum Guido qui probaverunt palaestrica, Et coepi vigilantes cum eo. Hogan erat in aemulus WCW, Et non esset conferre et organizationibus, et quod sunt adhuc per outdated themata et gimmicks. Dum autem vigilavit in coetus, Non invenient me vigilantes cum redieris in domum suam in aestate confractus. Quod mutata in May 27, 1996, Cum WCW cecidit a bombshell. Quorum relative lenis programming accepit boost cum mirum adventu Scott Hall (Ille Rasher Ramonia), sequitur paucis septimanas post amicum Kevin Nash (pristini Deisel). 

WCW nunc habuit in Edgy sentire et interest SPICATUS pro suis bash ad litore card, Tantum available per acquisitionem stipendium-per-view iaci. Hall et Nash, Cum promissionem mysterium socium, proelia heroicis trio Randy saeva, Stimulus, Et Lex luger. Recuperandae ex recens genu surgery, Et non emo in spectaculum. Et non audistis ullo results aut tradit cum tuned in Lunae noctis programming. Et genu proported et, In dolor-inducitur stopor, Vigilavi ut puppis ambulavit ad annulum per pelagus res. Heroum salvificem et mitte sceleribus fugientes. Aut sic cogitavi. Memini cogitandi "fecit iustum impetum iniuriam amet?"Sicut ille cecidit eius signature Legdrop in saeva.

Sicut fecit 12 anni ante, Puppis Hogan iterum erat epicenter de luctandi revolution. Hoc tempore fecit aversizing se in calcaneum mores et addendo moniker "Hollywood" nominis. Et mutavit tincidunt flavo et rubrum colores in nigrum et albo color machinemur et notari per "Novum Ordinis" de palaestrica. Et adduxit palaestrica in amet. Media operuit palaestrica iterum. Erat Disputatio circa oppidum, Scholarum et officiis, Quam puppis Hogan conversus in malis guy. Una cum aula et Nash, Fecit refrigescant malum.

Ut contra WCW scriptor ratings CREPITUS, Et WWE accommodata magis Edgy uber, Frigus Steve Austin et DUXERIT Frigus Austin et Dwayne "petra" Cicero. Lunae noctibus factus ratings bello inter utrumque societates et vigilantes luctando erat "in" aliquid ut faciam iterum.

Ego memini ambulans usque ad iuvenem nostrum campus qui erat circumdatio an Nwo T-shirt. Et respexit ad eum et interrogavit "es?"Et dedit" pro vita "signum cum sinistra manu. Et respondit cum" etiam dulcis "gestu. Diximus amici cum et omni anno in nostrae respectivorum natales, quia et omnis annus in nostrae de natalibus, Nos post an NWO salutem in altera scriptor Social Media pagina.

Ut contra WCW scriptor ratings CREPITUS, Et WWE accommodata magis Edgy uber, Frigus Steve Austin et DUXERIT Frigus Austin et Dwayne "petra" Cicero. Lunae noctibus factus ratings bello inter utrumque societates et vigilantes luctando erat "in" aliquid ut faciam iterum. Luctantem in 80s erat sicut decade, clarus, LAETUS, et super-in-vertice. Luctantem in 90s similes mutationes tempora, grittier et magis realis. In rebelles anti-heros erat popularibus trend et idoneum habitus mei iustus-conversus-XXI personality.

Per meum junior anno in 1997, EGO eram electus ad arca archa in prestigious collegiate orientalem, occidentem classic in Reno, NV. Infeliciter, Tantum a septimana ante praedura, Mea scheduled adverso coactus recedere cum injuriam et teammate in levioribus pondus genus capta est. Dum layover in San Francisco Airport, Mea pugilatus teammates vidit puppis Hogan ambulans, indutus in niger et albus NWO garb. Substitit ad photo, et tenetur. Esse socius de schola journalism clava, Ego submittere photo for usuris in schola newspaper, Et ipsum photo ut essem includitur in. Et sequenti anno, Non poterat facere ad iter ad Reno, NV ad Certatim in oriente-West Ordo. Ambulabam per aeroportus cum alius pugil de trinus, Vultus enim quis WCW luctator ut in San Francisco Airport, Etiamsi non erat realiter tantum unum quod erat vultus in occursum.

Post graduating, Ego servanda est cum palaestrica trend. In 2001, Wwe emit a WCW, Et sicut in anno post, Hulk Hogan rediit ad proelium petra in generationibus classic ubi fans amplectitur reditus. Puppis discedere et ad comitatu aliquoties in paucis annis, et per se reditus, Cum primum pauci chordas eius signature theme "verus American" non ledo aere, Deafening reactionem turbam implere arenam cum electricitate.

Per medium-2000s, Venit ut animadverto ut mihi occasionem in occursum meum omnes-vicis ventus luctator et icon amisit cum Reno pugil recessit ex nostris praedura in MCMXCVII. Esse naïve fan, Non animadverto ut puppis realiter a Tampa regio. Et fuit semper billed a Venetiis litore, Ca et tulit quod veritas. Ego coepi faciens an annua vere trinus ut Clearwater in 2008 atque, A paucis annis postea, Mihi succiditur transierunt a bar dicitur "Hogan scriptor litus", circa Tampa Airport. Et inveni sicco postea quod erat talea possessores a puppis Hogan, Sic ego feci a puncto addere die ad iter ad proximum annum visitare quod talea. Erat meus forte ut in photo sensit ego merui. In 2015, Veni ad Hogan scriptor litus cum camera paratus, Nisi nulla puppis Hogan ad Hogan scriptor litus.

Cum Hogan scriptor litore claudendo in 2016, Audivi quod haberet memorabilium tabernam in Clearwater Beach quod aliquando se facere temere apparent. Et factum visitationes in 2016, 2017, 2018, atque 2019, Omnes cum non fortuna. Interdum audio aliquid simile "etiam malum. Et hic heri." Annus, Ego emit a shirt et tulit a photo posing extra tabernam. Amicus pristini teammate Jason, qui erat in hoc fatum pugilatu trinus in 1997, Ut costa mihi omnis annus et comment cum eorum photo a aeroportus duo decennia prior. Ego semper Respondeo dicendum quod vellem invenire quod Reno pugil sic non potuit tandem habere quod pugilatu par et omnis annus, Ego addere anthere anthus of interest supra de verbo pulsu erat iens ut 20 anni ante.

Quamvis malus leo omni anno, Ad Hogan scriptor Beach Shop in Clearwater Beach erat a fun experientia. Quando eram hedum, Ibi erat loqui de palaestrica tabernam ostium ad prope agricolae scriptor foro, et haedos in vicinitatem omnibus locutus est de qua nos emere, aut in re, Exsequi parentes emere nobis. Ego convictus sum ambulans cum teaway puppis Hogan shirt, flavo truncos, Rubrum geneepads, et flavo tabernus. Parentes tandem tulit me, atque, Ad mea elit, Erat pauci actio figuras ut iam possidebantur, A paucis T-shirts, et negotiatione pecto. Et tabernam in Florida erat 80s hedum in paradiso. Fuerunt dozens shirts eligere ex, una cum vittas, offa specula, actio figuras, et replica balteos. Ibi sunt items ostentationem, ut puppis scriptor anulum-warmet title zona, Veri nominis ric clandestina stolam, et par Andre gigas-amplitudo luctaretur truncos. Durante unus ex me loquitur cum puppis scriptor amicus et negotium socium, RON, Et interrogavit si voluit ut a photo tenens paucis de anulum-winds. Primo obtinuit ad imbre-picta NWO balteum, quae miris. Sed quod professi proximo fere tuniculam genua. Erat autem authenticum balteus ut puppis vestitos ad circulum ad Wrestlemania III cum proelia Andre gigas. Et realis-vita balteus a maybe maxima par omnium-vicis erat quiescens super humero meo. Conatus ad lenta faciem ad photo, Sed non potuit resistere cupidine ad conteram ex a risus risu quod tenuit hoc ICONICUS fragmen mei pueritia.

Ego tandem vidit aureum occasionem pro mea diu-exspectantes photo occasionem cum ostium Hogan scriptor Hangout Bar et Weekly Karaoke Noctes Atticae. Mea visita erat cogitavit ad Martius 14, 2022, Et ego paratus ad impress et Hulkster mos meus version of Domine Mix-A-Lot scriptor Classic "Puer Natus". Et pervenit mane ut a bonus macula ad vectes, Et habebat alium acc viam meam sleeve. Et protulit a replica de thunderlips cape quod gerebat in petrosa III. Non fuit ut non relinquam sine photo.

Postquam testimonii et fabulamur cum Longtime WWE / WCW Procurator et Hulk scriptor personalis amicus, Jimmy Hart, Et iterum tulit macula ad vectes et expectabat excitatur anticipatio sicut feci cum hedum exspectabat ostium ad Philadelphiae spectro. Plerumque venientes inter 8:15-8:20, Puppis non perveniant usque post 8:30 Et dum adhuc introitus, Erat aliquantulus obtinuit. Tulit tulit tortor et nuntiatum quod iustus accepit phone vocatio amicus et Nwo Socius Scott Hall transivit paulisper prior post remota a vita firmamentum post cor impetum. Puppis et misit per potus per talea ut omnes participes a TORRO.

Postquam, Et Karaoke coepi. Non fuit tabulas ut quis erat scheduled in queue et impatienter exspectavimus audire nomen meum. Audivi alii Missus a VENMA munera curare vocati. Nimis sero itinere. Non cogitare relinquens sine questus photo occasio. Non solum ut ego adepto costed condita, Sed etiam cognovi rem de rigore quod professionalem luctarii accipit in corpore. Scott Hall cum modo transierunt illa die. Alii sicut Roddy Piper, PRAETOR, Ultima bellator, et curt H. omnes mortuus iuvenis. Non potui periculum exspectat aliud. Ego evincitur ipse ad frontem, Sicut ego erat navigando ad restroom, Inveni perfectam macula ubi puppi transibit exitum. Ut procinctu discedere, Et vidit me et dedit "io tonabitlips. Magna promunturium, Frater!"Comment. In eo tempore, Non fuit XLV annos assecurationis exsecutiva. Ego iterum 10 annorum, Et ventus luctator erat vocant me. Ego extenditur manu, et accepit. Sciens non habebat secundam, Ego quoque in camera in selfie et surrexit meum photo.

A pauci weeks ante 2023 Clearwater trinus, Vidi Hulk ageret signum in litore tabernam diei horarium adveniat. Ego autem mane fuga si bene, Dissimilis sex hora mora ante annum debitum ad cibus Leak, Ego potest esse a photo et signature. EGO emit aspectum tessera et orabat nulla mora. Postquam perveniens non exitibus, Tulitque in linea quae circa duo horae insidiantur. Cur tamdiu?  Quia puppis voluit ad paucos momenta omnium. Cum autem mea rursus, Ego introduced me quod "Tony Turbo" ex Philadelphiae. Et respondit "Tony Tornado Tornado!  Quid usque, frater?"Et interrogavit si ego erat luctatorem et respondit quod non erat luctatore sed pugil. Et misit manus dicens, "Non ledo me, frater!"Ego gratias egerunt ei quia faciens mihi pueritia specialis, maxime quod primum Wrestlemania cum Pater, Et signati a rubrum Hulkamania Tanktop mihi. Dixi ei quod ego videre eum die Lunae nocte pro Karaoke.

Dissimilis prior annus, Et habebat electronic tabula, ubi non videt ubi erant in queue. Veni cum amicis et texted in ire-ad carmen nisi quod posuit tempus terminus restrictiones quattuor minuta, verisimile quia priore anno, Homines sunt eligens carmina sicut "scala ad caelum" et "Rappers delight" (brevi version) Longum carmen electiones et non alii occasionem. Cum mea signature canticum off librum, Ego optavi for DMC scriptor classic "suus 'captioni" cum enim Fecerunt ad Wrestlemania V. ornatam in thunderhs cap et albus fedora cum matching rubrum pinnas et exspectantes puppis in introitu et aditum, Amicus certus in carmen queue tabula showing quod erat secundo cantare. Cum autem tandem intravit pauci minutes post perficientur, Et vidit promontorium et fedora et boomed "Tony Turbado!  Tu cantus, Frater?"Dixi ei quod iam cecinit et respondit ad ascendere ad scaenam, quod voluit a photo mecum. Si eram in nubem 9 priore anno, Hoc prorsus cecinit ex aqua. Pauci et amicis meis epularer et nos cocto paucos offa in celebratione, Movere quod pepercit postero die in hangover non iucundum unum.

Ego autem cantabo unum tempus ad Hogan scriptor Hangout in MMXXIV. EGO got Clearwater beach nuper et vidit aliquos amicos ad talea ius sicut puppis fuit sicut perveniens. Conieci et contemplatus an non cantarent aut non. Semel fabulosus Major League Pipue Rogerus Clemens et filius Kody Kody hospitio cum Toby Keith Tribute carmen, Et placuit ad induendum nomen in. Hoc tempore et mihi cantabo ire, ut tune et ego poterat accipere a se cum puppis cum in medio lyrici rampage aut Domine misce-a-lyrici in classic tune mix-a-lyrici mix.

Quasi noctem curva, Ego paulisper dicere filium, Quisque. Et ostendit a picture ex priore anno scriptor petrae currere, Ubi ego cum complebitur a 5k in a tarso tarso in pleno thunderlips veste, inter costume musculus sectam, Fedora, promontorium, Cogo socks gimmicked ut tamquam palaestrica tabernus cum tassis, et portans pilae balteus. Quisque tulit mea phone et ostendit ei patrem, qui respexit ad me et ait: "Tu cucurrit in eo?  Nice officium, Frater!"Quod erat heri quod vidi puppis Hogan in homine.

Et semper dicunt quod imitatio est in forma blandit. Ego fuisse imitantes puppis Hogan in 40 iam annis, Utrum factum est cucurbita manu ad aurem et posing dum in camera ad Phillies ludum, Coling ut puppis pro nobis opus turpis partium et ferens et extra shirt sicut ego poterat imitari eius laceratione shirt off in mea leatica ostium, Faciens petrae currere indutus quod thunderlips cum ducem a quadrigis nomine "ultimum meatballs", aut faciens puppis Hogan Promo dum venditionis christmas.

Et aedificavi traditionem omni anno cum nepotibus emebant eos puppis Hogan shirt. Ego emit dominicus eius prima shirt, In classic flavo, Cum autem esset iustus annus vetus in MMXVIII. Cum nephew Mattheo natus tribus mensibus mane, Fui in Clearwater. Veni ad tabernam postero die et emit eum Hulkamania infans Jumper. Cum autem tandem potest venire domum post menses in Nicu, Parentibus indutus eo relicto hospitali. Hogan Superman in primo fecerat in vita. Hoc anno, Ego emit nostro matching shirts iterum et iuvenis domina currit ad mandare Recordatus me et traditionem cum pueris. Ea se et ornatu Mustaches. Dum dedi eos shirt et Mustaches, Tam excitatur ad imagines. Matteo et dormivi in ​​currus circumdatio tunicam et mustache. Sensi sicut frigidissima patrui in mundum. Propter pupillis Hogan, Parum pueros traditionem posset dare poterat.

Last Iovis, Evangelium Hulk Hogan scriptor subito transeunte misit ad inpulsa per luctando et hospitii societates. Non fuisse rumoribus gravi sanitas certamine sequentibus ceruicis fusione surgery. Quidam tradit eum in morte et alii dicebant non potuit loqui. A fama ex Jimmy cervus venit ex die Iovis mane, quod tradit sunt superflua, et puppis recuperare, tardius quam expectata, Sed tamen recuperare. Paucis horis post, Et nuntium fregit quod abiit post patiens cardiac comprehensionem in commorationis.

Ego quoque iustus consummavi in ​​testimonii ad opus cum vidi in recta nuntius a amicus dicens: "puppis mortuus est!"Cum TMZ link. Antequam potui etiam click link, Ego quoque aliud nuntius, Tum illud, Sicut omnia movetur in LABES. Hoc est puppis Hogan. Sane, non calcitrare ex uno tempore ad comitem duorum, Power et conspiciunt calescit messorem. Miser, factum est verum, Et dilectis puppis Hogan abiit. Et pervenit ad gym post opus, quod factum est vespere et complevit meum ultimum per in Haybybag cum Hogan scriptor signature tune "verus American" cranked in mea headphones. Ut relinquo, Vidi amico mutua luctando fan. Nos participatur incredulitate, Et proferens aliqui fastidium in populo sociali media celebrantes mortem. Sicut nos loquentes, Et re coepi hitting utrumque nostrum et stetit ibi ut duo crevit adultis, Una a weightlifter et unus a pugil, Tum tenens et lacrimis.

Ad vere memorialize puppis Hogan, Vos quoque meminisse quod esset realis homini. Terry Bollea cum culpis et fecit errata. Et cum accusatus est ludens Politica Backstage et tenens retro alia luctatorum. Fuit a rant in domum suam, qui captum a gentis Slur quod ut dixisse in ira. Quid nuper nocere eius popularis cum multis erat tergum a Polarizing politica candidatum. Multi qui fuerat fans nunquam dimisit eum ad gentis Slur et alii conversus in eum pro sua politica affiliation.

Nam mihi meminisse puppis Hogan, et luctatorem, Et Michael Bollea, homo, Accipio quod nos omnes homines, Et omnes iniquitates. Multi qui operantur in omni negotio potest esse accusatus per usura Clout et rumor adhuc suis gestas cum tenens retro collegae. In quibus fuit, quod est in domum suam, Multi ex nobis dixit quae posset considerari racist, sexist, aut homophobic. Multi, Illa verba dicuntur in ira et non est verum reflexionem unius est verum affectus. Cum ad Political Candidati, Est ipsum lubrico fastigio hoc dividitur cultura. Sed, Pars libertatibus nos frui est ius suffragium ut cupio et retro aliqua politica candidatum eligimus. Ad temere odio hominem, Praesertim hominem non convenerat, sola pro politica rationes, Ostendit angustus intuitu mundi. Potes dissentio cum sua substantia, Sed vos can adhuc frui eorum forma entertainment.

Ego memini Marrensis Bollea habebat culpas. Et erat sicut cetera nobis. Sed et ego quoque meminisse bonum et intulit in mundum. Et novos luctantem industria sicut babe Ruth fecit in baseball. Absque puppis Hogan, Et luctaretur BUTIO de 80s nunquam occurrit. Vince McMahon est visio a global Foederatio esset verisimile fixere. Absque puppis Hogan, Non esset non WrestleMania, Nec Lunae Nocte Wars, Nulla petra, Non lapis frigus, Non Johannem Cena, Extra etc. aedificare fundamentum, Ego quoque meminisse bonum et intulit in mundum. Et visitavit aegrotum pueri usque ad ultima hebdomades. Et inspiravit haedos ad elaborare, ad instituendi, dicunt eorum orationes, et accipere vitamins. Potissimum, Et factum est tibi sentire bonum de ipsum. Et factum est in aliquid maior quam vita. Et re vera erat "babe Ruth de luctarii." Fuit baseball ante babe Ruth et baseball est floruit in decades post eius transeuntes. Players sunt citius, fortior, et melius conditionata. Sed non tamen est unum babe Ruth. Sicut in palaestrica. Erat palaestrica ante puppis Hogan et hodie luctatorum sunt plus acrobatic et magis athletice. Sed non tamen est semper et semper una puppis Hogan.

Post Hulk scriptor transitum ultima septimana, Una quae ledo me gravissime fuit cogitatio, quod quidam de traditionibus ego fuerat in novissimis paucis annis non iam permanere. Tulit mihi paucos dies, Sed placuit quod ego permanere ad Don in thunderlips vestem in petrae currere, Similia amicus marcam qui continues honorem nuper bert iuvenes et Paulie mores in participatione. Ego autem consilium facere puppis Hogan Imitations dum ad ligno multum dum trying ut hospitio nostris customers. Potissimum, Volo servo meo annua traditionem cum Dominico et Matteo. Indicia sunt eius tabernam in Clearwater Beach et manebit aperta et, Nam quamdiu est, Ego permanere quod speciale traditionem buying US matching shirts et taking photos of US posing.

Mark Bollea ut abierunt. Credo in Deum et postferlife. Credo quod Terricus remississem, Et nunc est in paradiso. Dum Mark Bollea ut abiit, Legenda in puppis Hogan et vivet nunc et in perpetuum. Heroes Get Recordatus autem legends non moriatur. Et Hulkamania et vivet in aeternum.

Puppis Hogan, Vellem gratias ago tibi. Gratias ago tibi, ut gaudium ad pueritia. Tibi gratias ago tibi quoniam dare mihi fortitudinem ad conteram ex meo testa et amicos in novam scholam. Gratias ago tibi quia faciens me credunt in virtute disciplina, orationes, et vitamins. Gratias ago tibi quia faciens me credere quod mortalis homo potest vere esse superhero. Tibi gratias ago tibi quia non potest esse frigus esse malum. Gratias ago tibi quia dare mihi aliquid ad participes cum nepotibus. Tibi gratias ago tibi, quia misericordiam cum tandem obtinuit in occursum adventus tui. Et omnium omnium, Tibi gratias ago tibi, quia adtringendum Hulkamania in vita. Quieti in pace!

Leave a comment

By: Tony Penecale

Lock Haven Boxing

ex genere 1998

Dr. Ken “Doc” Cox was a legend of a man. He was a teacher, a coach, a mentor, a confidant, and a friend. He passed away on February 5, 2022 at aetatis suae 88 annorum, leaving a void in the hearts of all who knew him and loved him.

I’ve pondered over the last 24 hours how we are going to navigate through a world without Dr. Cox, aka “Doc”, a man who coached us, taught us, pushed us, and mentored us. He was a man that could light up a room and command attention. He could leave you hanging on every word as he shared life experiences or he could have you rolling on the floor, laughing until it physically hurt.

While his passing last night was not unexpected, it still hurt with the force of a thousand sledgehammers. I know I will likely break down and sob or flat out cry several times while I am writing this piece. There is definitely crying in boxing and tonight the Lock Haven Boxing and our extended collegiate boxing families are all in mourning.

Dr. Cox came into my life in 1994 when I was a freshman at Lock Haven University. I decided to go to Lock Haven, in truth it was my only choice, because I had become so enamored with the dream of boxing. When I found out that Lock Haven had a nationally-ranked team with a well-known coach, I set my heart on attending.

When I arrived on campus that fall semester, my first point of business was to seek out and meet Dr. Cox, armed with a list of excited questions. He agreed to meet with me a few weeks before he held the open meeting for prospective team members. I walked into the building where his academic office was located and it was then I saw a rotund man with white hair and a big smile on his round face walking towards me. I’m not sure who he was but it certainly couldn’t be this legendary coach. It was then he walked up to me and, in a voice that is so often imitated, he introduced himself. I did not realize then that I had just met a man who would so positively influence my life.

To know “Doc” was a true blessing in life. He could make you laugh or make you angry. He would call you out and put you on the spot. Being a professor, he valued education and he enforced that his student athletes, boxers at the time, and wrestlers before that, focused on their education. He would, without hesitation, withhold a competitor from a show or tournament if they were not keeping up with their academics.

He knew when to push you and exactly what buttons to push. He would bring the Lock Haven boxers to Rockview St. Penitentiary to train and spar with the inmates. The first time he brought me along, I was getting bullied and beaten up by an older and more experienced inmate. I was afraid and I kept looking over at him, in a way hoping that he would stop the sparring session. But he looked back and his eyes calmed me and I knew to throw a counter punch out of the corner. Dr. Cox believed in me at that moment when I didn’t believe in myself. A few years later, after me appointed me President of the Lock Haven Boxing Club, he asked me to submit the paperwork on which of his boxers he was selecting to compete in an upcoming show in New York. He also knew that I would see those papers so he wrote on there that I was “not nearly as talented” as another boxer on the roster. While we never spoke of it, he knew that he would ignite a fire in me to overcome my lack of natural ability through dedication and determination. It was just one of his many methods of motivation. As he would often say, he was “using a negative stimulus to produce a positive result.”

In essence, Dr. Cox was a giver. He shared his knowledge, his experience, and most importantly, his time to mold young men and women into competitive student athletes and decent human beings. He shared his family with us, including his wife Glenda, who was the driver (“the pilot”) of so many of our road trips. Those road trips, whether they were 45 minutes to Penn St. or several hours to Annapolis, were always entertaining life lessons. We were never allowed to sleep on those trips as “Doc” found this was the perfect time for education. He would discuss whatever topic hit his mind and they often came from left field. Those trips were never boring.

Dr. Cox always implored us to give back to the sport that gave us so much. He encouraged his student boxers to go into coaching and officiating, often allowing us to assist him in working the corner of one of our teammates, or setting up seminars so we could get our certification. He would, without question, gladly write a recommendation for a job or internship. He asked me to sit in his office while he wrote a letter of recommendation for me. He educated me on how to effectively communicate through the written word and focused on using “power” and “impact” words that would command attention and respect. He was always willing to be listed as a job reference because he wanted to see those who had trained and mentored become successful in life.

Since yesterday, I have been thinking a lot about my favorite “Doc” stories, the ones that I tell the most often. Of course, you can’t tell a Doc story without imitating his voice and mannerisms. Every year, when the LHU boxing alumni would gather for the annual boxing homeshow and after party, we would all tell our favorite stories while doing the Doc imitation. Sadly, the next time we gather will be for his funeral. This is a way for me to cope with his death and smile through the tears. These are in no particular order. For the most part, I will avoid using any names in the event someone doesn’t want to be called out.

  • First Roadtrip and “Barnyard Beef” – My first roadtrip with Doc and the LHU team was October 1994 to the US Naval Academy. It was the annual season kickoff meeting and a round of sparring sessions with boxers from Navy, VMI, Lock Haven, Shippensburg, and Mansfield. It was a relatively uneventful day except for one of the Haven’s novice boxers had taken a few solid punches and was now complaining how bad his jaw hurt. On our way home, we were expecting to make a quick dinner stop, likely a McDonalds, until Doc spotted a little shack-looking place on the side of the road called “Barnyard Beef.” Once he saw it, he implored Glenda to cut off the driver in the right lane so we could pull over as he boomed “Hun Hun… That’s where we need to stop. It’s called Barnyard Beef. It has to be good!” He gave us all a few dollars to order and we all went with roast beef sandwiches with Doc getting an extra-large selection which looked to be about as big as the moon. Our sulking boxer implored that his jaw was too sore to chew so he opted for a cup of soup. Doc took the first bite of his gigantic roast beef sandwich and rolled his eyes in delight “Oh My God!  This is the BEST roast beef sandwich ever” and looking over at his lone soup-eating boxer, he followed with “You gotta get one of these!  Forget about your jaw! Stop being such a pansy and get one!"
  • Mad in the Corner – As mentioned, Doc wanted to give his student boxers opportunities to learn to coach. There was a December card at Penn State my sophomore year where I and another teammate had our bouts canceled when our opponents from Buffalo were snowed in. Doc saw an opportunity to have us help in the corners with each of us taking two bouts and he would allow you to get in the ring and give the instructions. The first bout I worked with him was a clear Lock Haven victory. The second bout I worked with him did not go so well. The Lock Haven boxer was not doing well and certainly not up to his potential. Through the first round, I could tell Doc was getting angry. As the bell rang, he snarled “Let me have the ring” which was never a good thing. As I sat there, I made a vow that situation would never happen to me. Fast forward two months later, I am competing in that same PSU ring against a very sloppy and awkward opponent and the first round was going poorly, very poorly. The bell rung to end the first round and, as I started walking back to my corner, I saw Doc getting in the ring with a wild and angered look in his eyes. I almost considered walking to my opponent’s corner and asking if I could stay there for the next minute because I knew my corner was not going to be a fun place to be. In a crazy way, Doc’s unleashing on me actually forced me to refocus and allowed me to come back to win that one.
  • President’s Dinner – At the end of every year, the president of the university would have a dinner for the boxing team. As Doc had retired as a professor in 1996, they decided that year that the dinner would not just be for the current team but also for some selected alumni. After the boxing nationals had ended in April, Doc was flying to Fiji for a few weeks to participate in a boxing seminar. He was scheduled to return only a day before the dinner banquet. We were waiting for him at the gym so we could travel to the dinner as a team. When Doc walked through the doors, our collective jaws hit the floor. He was wearing a suit jacket and tie and a traditional Fijian sulu. In our eyes, he was wearing something that resembled a skirt. He just smiled back and said “These are so comfortable. I think I am going to start wearing them more often.” To say his attire was the talk of the dinner was an understatement for sure.
  • Pork & Beans – One of Doc’s defining characteristics in life was his generosity and willingness to help others. He had a close relationship with the local Salvation Army and every year, he would set up a day for the boxing team to ring the bells for the Salvation Army kettle. When Doc found out that one of his boxers was struggling financially and unable to afford food, he worked out a deal with the Salvation Army where they would donate some food for him. We were loading a box of groceries donated when this boxer who came from a Muslim family looked at the one item and declined it as it included pork. Doc picked up the can and said “Are you sure?  How can you tell?” to which he was informed that it was a can of Pork & Beans. He pondered for a moment simply said “Hmmm… You know I never knew that had pork in it?"
  • Don’t Eat the Pizza – We were traveling to New York for the annual show at the New York Athletic Center a few days before Thanksgiving. This was a rare show with the weigh-in the day before the show and the whole ride to Manhattan, Doc was talking about how we were going out to eat after the weigh-in. Since it was my first year competing on the NYAC show, he allowed me to choose the ethnic food we would be indulging in later. Of course, I picked Italian. Doc had one more very important piece of advice. After the weigh-in, there would be pizzas there. Even though we were all hungry from making weight for the show, he advised that we do not eat the pizza because we were going out to dinner. The three Lock Haven boxers made weight and, after changing, we walked over to find Doc eating his third slice of pizza. A short while later, we are seated at the famed Luna’s restaurant in Little Italy and Doc is complaining that he shouldn’t have eaten that pizza and he was too full to order a meal. The legendary Dr. Cox, the man who stories recount ate so much Chinese Food the year before, was reduced to ordering a side salad. As we were eating and laughing, Coach Ken Cooper made an astute observation. Doc had finished his salad and was now eating from his wife’s plate, all the while mentioning how he wasn’t hungry. Not missing a beat, Doc proceeded to take the extra meatballs from the one boxer’s meal.
  • Cigars and Vodka –This is one that I didn’t get to witness personally but he told it so often that I felt like I was there. As a highly-respected wrestling coach, Doc was often invited to wrestling seminars in Russia where that sport is God-like. Doc was often the recipient of many bottles of the finest Russian vodka. He would attend boxing seminars in Cuba. Before flipping truck tires became a trendy thing in most fitness centers, Doc borrowed the Cuban method and would have his fighters bounce on truck tires to increase leg strength and conditioning. He also came home from many of these trips with some authentic Cuban cigars. He would tell us how he would then go to the store and buy the cheapest cigars and vodka, only to switch the labels. He would then imitate those smoking the cheap cigars and drinking the cheap vodka thinking they were consuming the real goods. He would pantomime their sipping of the vodka and slow puffing of the cigars while commenting “how you can really taste the difference”, his whole time cackling at the knowledge that he knew they were really gushing over the lowest quality of both items.
  • Weight – It’s no secret, Doc wanted his boxers to compete in different weight classes. He also always envisioned a dominant heavyweight on his team and he would workout football players or wrestlers who had exhausted their eligibility in those respective sports. At the beginning of each school year, I would show up around 190-195 and Doc would envision me being his solution at heavyweight, despite the fact that I didn’t have the height, and once I started conditioning, the weight to sustain it. I still remember those conversations. “Ok Penecale, you weighed in at 185 for last week’s bout. What did you weigh today?” I would respond with “182” and he would shoot back “Ok, hoc septimana, I am going to put you in with a ‘small’ heavyweight.” When he meant “small”, it was usually anyone under 235 and I would show up to weigh-ins with rocks in my pockets. Then one day, only a few days before regionals, he decided to try another avenue. I had been between 178-180 and fully expecting to compete at 180 in the regionals when he asked “Do you think you can make 165 by Friday?” It was already Tuesday afternoon. He felt that was my best path to the National tournament so I agreed. In spring 1997, between January 30 and April 12, Doc had me compete in five separate weight classes.
  • My last homeshow – Fitting that this anniversary is tomorrow (February 7) and I will be posting the Youtube video like I do every year. The homeshow was always a big event and Doc would want everything to be perfect. As Coach Coop would say to us, Doc would be very impatient or as so eloquently described “he would be a bear with a sore ass.” The last thing you wanted to do was annoy Doc before, dum, or after the homeshow. My senior year, I was taking on a boxer from Army by the name of Michael Jordan. My friends and roommates showed up with custom signs and shirts and they were seated in the bleachers close to my corner. Earlier in the card, when I was getting changed, a boxer from Kentucky had knocked out an opponent from Penn State and drew the crowd’s ire by jumping on the ropes and showboating. I was unaware of this, so as the emotion hit me at the final bell, I banged my gloves and started a run to my corner to jump on the ropes and salute my cheering section. Doc read my mind and sternly said “NO!” which forced my momentum into an awkward gallop, looking like a bucking bronco that was just hit with a cattle prod.

The last two days have been emotional and difficult, from finding out that Doc was soon-to-be transitioning to the crushing news of his passing. Being an admin on the LHU Boxing Facebook page, one of the abilities is to approve posts. I saw so many posts submitted for approval from friends, familia, fellow alumni including so many photos. It was nearly impossible not to break down.

Dr. Cox was a coach, an educator, a mentor, and a friend. As I first said in the post after his passing, he taught me so many lessons in and out of the ring. He believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself. He pushed me to be better, a better boxer, a better student, a better son, a better friend, and a better human. Those life lessons still impact me every day and I find myself sharing them often.

Coach Cooper added in his tribute “He who is in the hearts of so many is never truly gone”.  That is a true statement. Dr. Cox will live on through the positive impact that he has made through so many of his students, athletarum, familia, et amicos,.

You will certainly be missed, Dr. Cox. Thank you and We Love You!!!

Tornado goes to the movies: rocky iV remastered review

Leave a comment
by: Tony “the Tornado” Penecale (supra)

Here is my review of the Rocky vs Drago movie plus a photo with the movie poster. Guess who walked out with it!

So I went to see the Rocky vs Drago Director’s Cut film last night.


Here are 2 spoilers that shouldn’t be spoilers. Apollo still dies and Rocky still wins.


So the movie had approximately 40 minutes of new footage. It also kept approximately the same run time so with 40 minutes of new footage, there is nearly 40 minutes of omitted footage.


Now for some spoilers. If you don’t want anything spoiled, I suggest you stop reading here.


There were two shots that I really hoped would have been edited out for this film but somehow still made it in. I’ll get to them later.


So I’ll breakdown some of the changes/additions/omissions and give my thoughts.


1) New opening. Usually, it starts with the ROCKY title scrolling across the bottom to one of the series signature songs. Then it breaks into the last round of the previous movie. This movie starts with various clips from Rocky 3 including Rocky’s loss to Clubber Lang, Apollo talking him out of retiring, and the climatic fight scene. It completely omits the Rocky and Apollo sparring session. I was not a fan of the new opening. I am used to the normal movie openings that last 2-3 minutes and set the stage for the new installment. I wasn’t a fan of the song they used “Sweetest Victory” which is on the Rocky IV soundtrack but never used in the original.


2) No robot. While this was seen as a cross between corny and creepy (Paulie’s girlfriend?), the omission of the robot, likely due to licensing agreements, meant that many scenes with Paulie or Rocky Jr had to be cut including Paulie’s birthday scene.


3) The new Drago introduction press conference explains that they tried to arrange a fight with Rocky. I thought that was good but they cut out Drago’s wife comparing him to Popeye eating spinach. In eo,, a lot of Brigitte Nielsen’s dialogue was cut. Could it be because of her “rocky” relationship with Stallone?


4) The reasoning for Apollo to take the fight was improved. Yes, he still shows up out of nowhere and part of the table scene had to be cut (no robot, remember) but they talked about how Rocky ignored the challenge and Apollo feeling the need to take it.


5) I thought the omission of the whole pre-fight dressing room scene with Rocky and Apollo was a mistake. Not only does it cut one of my favorite lines “I didn’t say anything about snails, I said Nails N-N-Nails” but it shows Apollo’s overconfidence and Rocky’s trepidation. The only part of the original dressing room scene that is preposterous is where Rocky was trying to convince Apollo to postpone. Seriously, who postpones 5 minutes before they are scheduled to walk to the ring?


6) The Creed-Drago fight was greatly improved. Except for the one shot they left in from the original where Apollo is clearly not wearing gloves. They missed that edit the first time. How did they miss it again? The fight was extended and Apollo got up after an early knockdown and kept trying to fight back.


7) Apollo’s funeral was extended and improved with his father-figure Duke giving a speech and Rocky giving a more emotional speech.


8) The scene with the boxing commission not sanctioning the fight between Rocky and Drago was included as it was shown in the original 1985 trailer but cut from that movie.


9) The scene of Rocky talking to his son before leaving was extended and improved.


10) The training montages were slightly changed and some edits to the scenes in Russia.


11) The final fight was still enjoyable. There were some added elements to it.


12) Two of the better movie speeches were changed to voiceovers. Apollo in the dressing room telling Rocky he would understand when it was over was changed to voiceover in Rocky’s head. The epic speech to Adrian where he said Drago would have to kill him to beat him was also changed to an inner-monologue voiceover. I definitely think that was a mistake because it takes the charm away from seeing the facial expressions of Apollo and Rocky respectively as they said those lines.


13) The moment before the final round when Drago’s manager ran from his balcony seat with the Kremlin to berate Drago in his corner. I was hoping that if any scene was cut, it would be that one. I would rather there be a scene of Paulie marrying the robot and announcing she was pregnant than this scene. I hated it in 1985 (when I was 9 annorum) and I hate it now. There is 60 seconds between rounds of a boxing match. This man ran from the balcony, through the crowd, got to Drago’s corner, and berated him in less than one minute. Draco, for having endured 14 punishing rounds, is able to stand up and lift him with one arm before dropping him off the apron. Talk about taking some serious liberties.


14) The fight end. You get used to the way a Rocky fight ends. He scores the big knockdown, his opponent struggles to get up, and ultimately falls back down as the count reaches 10. This one, Drago goes down, makes a move to get back up, a falls flat. The referee stops with no count at all. I also hated Rocky’s leap at the end. In the original, he was lifted in the air as he stood there exhausted by triumphant. This one looks like he is able to do a leaping swan dive into a pool.


15) The speech is different. He couldn’t reference his kid because showing him would show the robot. I was glad in a way they cut the scenes of the kids watching the fight. It always posed some serious questions to me. If Rocky, Adrian, and Paulie were all in Russia, who was watching the 9 year old kid? The robot? Who is going to let an unsupervised 9 year old watch a fight where there is a fear that his father could be killed? The part of the speech that was comical was Rocky’s talk about change. He mentioned his friend (Apollo) couldn’t change and now he’s dead. Wow. Way to perk up the crowd there, Rock!


Overall it was enjoyable. The changed scenes and alternate takes threw off the cadence so you were in truth watching a new movie. There were a lot of scenes in this film that I prefer to the original (the extended Creed-Drago fight, the extended funeral, Rocky meeting with the commission). There were some scenes that I think should have been kept (Rocky and Apollo in the dressing room, Mrs. Drago talking about her husband, etc). There were a few things that I definitely prefer the original, most notably the superior intro scrolling logo/final round of previous movie scene.


So in my conclusion, there needs to be a Director’s Cut of the Director’s Cut and combine the best of the original and the best of the new version.


We can call this one “Rocky IV Take III: The Tornado Cut”

The Heavyweight Championship has always been the most noteworthy prize in the sport. Over the last few years, the interest in the fistic giants has dwindled. That has changed with the exciting power of Deontay Wilder and the charismatic showmanship of Tyson Fury.

With their first encounter ending in a controversial draw, they find themselves sharing the ring again. Both men with undefeated records and only a single draw (against each other) on their ledger.

The big men are taking center stage for the undisputed prize. “The Bronze Bomber” and “The Gypsy King”…. Who will reign supreme?

WBO Heavyweight Champion (’15-‘16)

IBF Heavyweight Champion (’15-‘16)

IBO Heavyweight Champion (’15-‘16)

Lineal Heavyweight Champion (’15-Pres)

HABITUS

Wilder:  

A wild-swinging, often-sloppy fighter with long arms and fight-changing power in both fists, Wilder likes to set the range with his lead hand and follow it with a variety of power punches. He carries his power late into his fights and is capable of scoring a knockout at any time.

Fury:

A confident, self-assured, and sometimes cocky fighter, Fury has nimble moves and quickness for such a large fighter. He combines good footwork with upper-body movement and ability to box either orthodox or southpaw, keeping opponents off-balance and setting up his own offensive attack.

THEIR FIRST BOUT

Wilder-Fury I: Fury opened the bout with effective movement, keeping Wilder off balance and unable to land anything significant. Wilder was able to land several hard jabs in the 4th undique, trickling blood from Fury’s nose. Fury spent time in the mid rounds as a southpaw and found success. Wilder scored a knockdown in the 9th round but his follow-up attack left him fatigued, allowed Fury to regain the momentum through the 11th round. The memorable 12th round saw Wilder break through and land a right hand and left hook combination. Fury fell hard to the canvas, flat on his back. He amazingly rose at the count of 9 and was outlanding Wilder as the final round concluded. Alejandro Rochin scored 115-111 Wilder, Robert Tapper scored 114-112 Fury, and Phil Edwards scored 113-113.

Vires

Wilder:

* Power – The detonation at the end of Wilder’s fists, primarily is right hand, is of nuclear proportions. While his left hand carries substantial pop in it, it is Wilder’s right hand that is seen as maybe the most devastating punch in boxing today. He can end fights by landing his right hand straight down the middle, arcing it over the top, or splitting the guard as an uppercut.

* Conditioning – Early in his career, when he was ending all of his fights within a few rounds, there were question marks if Wilder would fade in the later rounds. He has proven that he can fight equally as hard in the late rounds and capable of a knockout until the final bell.

* Athleticism – Wilder combines a rare blend of size, celeritate, potestas, and athletic ability where is easy to imagine him being dominant in any type of athletic environment.

Fury: 

* Movement – For a man with the size and physique that resembles a silverback, Fury moves with the grace and agility of a ballet dancer. He is light on his feet and possesses shifty upperbody movement that is uncanny for someone so large.

* Confidence – Fury is supremely confident in himself and believes in his ability. He shows little or no fear in the ring. His self-assured charismatic nature gives him a psychological advantage.

* Resilient – Whether it was climbing off the canvas against Wilder, overcoming a horrific cut against Wallin, or battling against depression and substance abuse, Fury has shown a toughness and resiliency that are to be admired.

Infirmitatibus

Wilder:

* Sloppy – Wilder shows so much faith in his power that he is frequently wild and sloppy with his punches and footwork. He often times looks very amateurish in the ring.

* Trouble With Boxers – Fighters who use good movement and boxing ability trouble Wilder. He struggles setting his feet and is often a step behind. He was trailing Luis Ortiz in both fights and was outclassed for most of his first fight with Fury.

* Chin – The few times that Wilder was seriously chin-checked, he showed some flaws in his durability. Ortiz had him badly hurt and close to a knockout loss.

Fury:

* Distractions – Fury is loving his new-found fame and talking WWE and MMA. He split with his trainer Ben Davidson and is calling his own shots. Fury also has spells in the ring where he loses focus and he has found himself on the canvas more than once during a lapse in concentration.

* Personal Life – It is well-documented Fury’s past personal demons with depression and substance abuse, along with a weight gain to over 400 lbs. While his triumphs over those demons is admirable, the lasting physical effects cannot be denied.

* Skin– It’s only been five months since Fury suffered a terrible gash over his right eye against Otto Wallin, requiring 47 stitches. While doctors have deemed the cut sufficiently healed, his tender skin could reopen at the most inopportune time.

Cap IRCA

Wilder:  (11/23/19) – Wilder again scored a come-from-behind knockout against Luis Oritz. After being outboxed for the majority of the first six rounds, Wilder set his range against a tiring Ortiz and landed a pulverizing right hand which resulted in a one-punch knockout.

Fury:

(9/14/19) – Fury survived a bloody contest with the undefeated but unknown Otto Wallin. Fury suffered a cut over his right eye in the 3rd round and the blood clearly affected his vision. Despite the impairment, Fury still controlled the action and hurt Wallin several times en route to a decision victory.

3 Here PERFORMANCES

Wilder:

* Artur Szpilka (1/16/16) – After falling behind early, Wilder took over in the 4th round and started to settle down and control the action. A single right hand in the 9th round sent Szpilka down and unconscious, autem 2016 Anni Knockout.

* Aurum Calicem (1/17/15) – Wilder answered questions about his stamina by going the full 12 rounds for the first time in his career and capturing the WBC title in the process. Wilder utilized his long jab and kept Stiverne at bay with his underrated skillset.

* Luis Ortiz (3/3/18) – Wilder survived some scary moments against the oft-avoided Cuban veteran before prevailing by 10th round knockout. Wilder was troubled by Ortiz’s boxing skills early before knocking him down in the 5th round. An Ortiz rally in the 7th had Wilder seriously hurt but Wilder was able to regroup and score the knockout a few rounds later.

Fury:

*  Wladimir Klitschko (11/25/15) – Fury went into Klitschko’s backyard and wrested the unified and lineal heavyweight championships via unanimous decision. While the bout was a cautious affair, Fury was able to outwork Klitschko with superior footwork, motus, and a higher punch output.

* Derek Chisora (11/29/14) – Fury dominated the rematch with his British rival, boxing from a distance, switching between orthodox and southpaw, and punishing his adversary until the corner stopped the fight after 10 one-sided rounds.

* Deontay Wilder (12/1/18) – With the exception of two knockdowns and some curious judging, Fury was in control for most of the bout. He avoided Wilder’s punches and landed effective counters, making Wilder looked confused and off-balance in the process.

KEYS ad victoriam

Wilder:

* Utilize his jab and negate Fury’s awkward style

* Keep his power punches short and compact

* Don’t get mesmerized by Fury’s upperbody movement

Fury:

* Change the pace and keep Wilder guessing

* Use lateral movement to keep Wilder from setting his feet

* Do not get cocky against the ropes

QUAESTIONES

Wilder:

* Can Wilder handle Fury’s unorthodox movement?

* Will Wilder employ a better gameplan?

*  Will Wilder become frustrated?

Fury:

* Will Fury try too hard for the knockout?

* Is Fury totally focused on boxing? 

* Is his cut eye susceptible to reinjury?

PENECALE PREDICTION

Both combatants are exceptional showmen and their respective ring entrances will have the crowd abuzz. The electricity will be at a fever pitch at the opening bell. With their familiarity, there will be less of a feeling out process than their first encounter. Fury will be on his toes moving forward and Wilder will try to time his advances and land counter punches. At the end of the 1st undique, Fury will taunt Wilder and there will be an exchange of words.

Fury’s constant movement and single punches will trouble Wilder as his counter punches will find mostly empty air. The following rounds will be an exciting game of cat and mouse with the smaller Wilder in the role of the cat, futility trying to corner the larger Wilder.

Wilder will find success with his jab in the 6th atque 7th rounds and a looping right hand will catch Fury on top of the head, knocking him off balance to the canvas. Fury will rise, wink at his corner, and come bouncing back into action. The excitement will have Wilder swinging wildly and falling to the canvas himself after missing overexaggerated right hand.

With Wilder seemingly arm-weary from his punch output the previous round, Fury will turn southpaw and land several hard right hands, then bounce out of range of any counter punches.

Fury’s movement and higher workrate will carry the action through the championship rounds, leading him again to an apparent lead going into the final round.

The decision this time will be unanimous with Dave Moretti and Glenn Feldman both scoring 115-112 and Steve Weisfeld a shade closer at 114-113, all in favor of “The Gypsy King” Tyson Fury.

Last weekend’s middleweight title showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs also featured the annual Box Fan Expo, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The amazing memorabilia on display and live amateur boxing action complemented an array of past and present world champion fighters available for quick meet and greets.

As a lifelong boxing fan, it was a shame that I only had a little over two hours to spend at the event before heading back to the T-Mobile Arena for the start of the undercard bouts. The time I was able to spend was thoroughly enjoyable. The prices were reasonable to meet these fistic legends and have a few moments to talk and take photos. The average $20 -$25 price for a photo op was significantly less than what would have been lost at the casino in a single roulette spin.

James Toney was there in a suit, proving that he can even make plaid look stylish. For a guy known for a surly nature, he was very accommodating and mentioned he will be in Philadelphia for a live show on June 7 and hopes to see me there.

In the booth next over was Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Al Berstein, who I had the privilege of interviewing in 2011. When told of my admiration of his classy work and being a fan since his days with Barry Tompkins on ESPN’s Thursday Night Fights, he was humble and appreciative.

The line to meet Roy Jones Jr. was long but worth the wait. While the time to talk with Roy was short, I was able to mention what an honor it was to meet one of the greatest performers of my generation and how I sat only a few feet from him when he was on the Creed II set.

While the line to meet the legendary Sugar Ray Leonard was exceptionally long, you could see he was truly enjoying himself, flashing that million-dollar smile and doing his famous fists-raised photo op with fans. Unfortunately, with time running short, I did not have the opportunity to meet one of my favorite fighters growing up. I would have loved to have shown him a photo when I was four-years-old, swinging away on the Sugar Ray Leonard punching bag I was given.

A few feet away was one of Sugar Ray’s most-famous rivals, the great Thomas “Hitman” Hearns. While the Hitman has shown some slowing as he has aged, he still proves to be an imposing figure, but he now replaces that fearsome glare with a warm smile.

Also coming up to meet Thomas Hearns was current IBF Super-Featherweight Champion Tevin Farmer, a fellow Philadelphian, who I’ve had the opportunity to watch grow from a 7-4-1 journeyman boxer to a 29-4-1 mundi fortissimus.

My visit wouldn’t be complete without stopping to see “The Pazmanian Devil” Vinny Paz, always one of my favorite action fighters and charismatic personalities. Instead of a handshake, he greeted me with a big hug and expressed disappointment that my dad didn’t join me at the expo.

In the short time frame, it was impossible to meet all of the great fighters there including Michael Spinks, Riddick: Inclinate, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, and Earnie Shavers. With it being Cinco de Mayo weekend, the lines for some of the Mexican legends wrapped around the convention center floor. Garcia mikey, Marco Antonio Barerra, Ericus Morales, and Juan Manuel Marquez all proved to be exceptionally popular. But nothing compared to the roar of the pro-Mexican crowd when the great Julio Cesar Chavez was introduced.

Attending this event was a dream come true and I could only wish I had more time to spend at the event. Everything was so professionally done and those in attendance were beyond accommodating.

Kudos to Box Fan Expo for such an exceptional event.

Can Canelo sprinkle some extra cinnamon on an explosive victory? Or will it be Jacobs who provides another miracle in his story-book comeback?

HABITUS

Alvarez:
Pugnax, physical fighter with underrated boxing skills, Alvarez saepe gerit adversarii cum consistent pressura gravisque tradidit pugnis. Will use feints and counters to throw is opponent’s timing off and create openings for a strength-sapping body attack. Carries fight-changing power in both hands but sometimes doesn’t throw enough punches. While he is most known for his offensive skills, Alvarez habent honestam, sed non ob hoc magni, peritias defensivas labentibus procurrendi et obsidendi pugnis.

Jacobs:
A lanky, long-armed boxer with versatile skills who often fights aggressively and is not afraid to exchange punches. Jacobs couples good boxing skills and fundamentals with knockout power in both hands. Will sometimes be too offensive-minded and is susceptible to counter punches. Shows tremendous heart in the face of adversity.








Vires

Alvarez:
* Power – Alvarez carries thunder in both fists. He has knockout power in either hand, sed his maxime vastare telum residet in sinistra hamo, especially to the body. He has three knockout-of-the-year candidates in his career.

* Vires - Alvarez est corporaliter-maturationis et spissius constructum pugnator mira fortitudine. He is effective in backing fighters up, etiamsi non litorum adpulsu arceret transvectam obpositae pugnis. He has grown from junior-middleweight and has competed recently at super-middleweight.

* Experience – Alvarez has come a long way during his professional career and has competed against some of the biggest names in boxing. He has been in this moment numerous times and the raucous atmosphere will be second nature to him.


Jacobs:
* Character – Jacobs stood up to and defeated the most daunting adversary of his career when he overcame bone cancer in 2011. His character shows in the ring as he has handled some difficult challenges in his career.

* Power – Jacobs has registered 29 eius 35 professional victories via stoppage. He has the power to change the fight with one punch and the killer instinct to finish a wounded opponent.


* Versatile – Jacobs possesses good boxing skills and movement, sometimes switching between orthodox and southpaw stances. If against another aggressive opponent, Jacobs will box on his back foot and seek counter-punching opportunities. He is adept at accelerating the pace when needed.




Infirmitatibus

Alvarez:
* Tactical Mistakes – Alvarez has made tactical mistakes in some previous fights, including trying to beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. by boxing with him on the outside. In other fights, he has allowed his opponents to control the pace and steal rounds.

* Easy-to-Hit – While his offensive skill is his calling card, Alvarez has a decent defense. When he loses focus or becomes overly aggressive, he is wide open for straight right hands and counter punches.

* Heavy Feet – Alvarez has good boxing ability but is often slow-footed in the ring. When matched against taller fighters with good lateral movement, he frequently struggles, as was the case in his bouts with Austin Trout and Erislandy Lara.


Jacobs:
* Suspect Chin – Jacobs is no stranger to tasting the canvas. He was knocked out in devastating fashion by Dmitry Pirog in his first professional loss. He was also on the canvas against Gennady Golovkin and Sergio Mora.

* Reckless – In his first fight against Mora, Jacobs became overly aggressive after scoring a knockdown and left himself wide open for a counter punch that put him on the canvas. He was also off-balance and reckless again when he had Peter Quillin stunned.

* Atmosphere – Jacobs has fought in Las Vegas before and main-evented in Madison Square Garden. Autem, this is his first marquee Las Vegas Cinco-de-Mayo weekend extravaganza.



Cap IRCA

Alvarez: (12/15/18) – Alvarez made a successful super-middleweight debut by destroying the game but overmatched Rocky Fielding in three rounds. Alvarez punished Fielding’s body, scoring quattuor knockdowns, and finishing him with his signature left hook to the liver.

Jacobs:
(10/27/18) – Jacobs had a tough encounter with undefeated but unknown Serhiy Derevianchenko, winning a 12-round split decision. Jacobs scored a 1st-round knockdown and landed more punches during the back-and-forth contest.



3 Here PERFORMANCES

Alvarez:
* James Kirkland (5/9/15) – The fireworks were on display from the opening bell as Kirkland engaged Alvarez with a kamikaze attack. Alvarez countered and scored a 1st-round knockdown and ended the fight in the 3rd round with a picturesque right hand.

* Liam Smith (9/17/16) – Alvarez methodically broke down the previously-undefeated Smith, controlling the bout from the beginning. Alvarez scored knockdowns in the 7th atque 8th rounds before ending the show with his left hook to the liver in the 9th undique.

* Carlos Baldomir (9/18/10) – Alvarez was a 20-year-old prodigy facing a durable former world champion in Baldomir. Alvarez was successful boxing early and using his advantages in speed and skill to sweep the first five rounds. But it was his display in the 6th that was memorable. Alvarez rocked Baldomir before finally dropping with a left hook, Ignarus priusquam ferire tribuere alios sibi illatas sistendum detrimentum in grabatto XVI annorum curriculo.



Jacobs:
* Mora sergio (9/9/16) – Jacobs wiped away any controversy from their first fight, which ended with Mora injuring his ankle, by dissecting him in the rematch, culminating in an impressive 7th round TKO. Jacobs scored a knockdown each in the 4th atque 5th rounds before opening up and dropping Mora three times in the 7th undique, forcing the stoppage.

* Peter Quillin (12/5/15) – In a battle for Brooklyn Bragging Rights, Jacobs stunned the undefeated and favored Quillin with a 1st round TKO. Jacobs landed a right hand early, sending Quilling staggering into the ropes. A follow-up flurry sent Quillin across the ring where the referee stopped the fight.

* Caleb Truax (4/24/15) – Jacobs dominated Truax with a masterful performance over 11 rounds, controlling the action with a heavy jab, and wearing his game opponent down. Comfortably ahead going into the final round, Jacobs unloaded on his weakened adversary until the referee saved him from further punishment.




KEYS ad victoriam

Alvarez:
* Start fast and don’t allow Jacobs to become confident

* Cut off the ring and force Jacobs to fight in confined spaces

* Go to the body early and often



Jacobs:
* Use a stiff jab and lateral movement to keep Alvarez off balance

* Land something to get Alvarez’s respect early

* Do not get reckless







QUAESTIONES

Alvarez:
* Will the move back to middleweight drain Alvarez?

* Is Alvarez overlooking Jacobs?

* Will Alvarez become frustrated if Jacobs uses effective lateral movement?


Jacobs:
* Can Jacobs win a decision in Las Vegas?

* Will Jacobs be able to exploit Alvarez’s tactical shortcomings?

* How will Jacobs handle the pro-Alvarez atmosphere?



PENECALE PREDICTION

The crowd will be buzzing at the opening bell. Alvarez will move forward, hands up, probing with his jab and trying to set his feet. Jacobs will be moving laterally, pawing a tentative jab and using head feints. The cautious 1st round will end with Alvarez stepping in and throwing a few hard body shots, causing the partisan crowd to erupt in cheers.

Alvarez will continue to apply pressure in the 2nd atque 3rd rounds with Jacobs working to establish his jab with more authority. Jacobs will land a few heavy jabs to the face with Alvarez countering with right hands over the top. Jacobs will step to his left to avoid Alvarez’s left hook to the body.

The action will continue to intensify through the middle rounds. Jacobs will be following his jab with a straight right hand. Alvarez will be crouching and using his strength on the inside, using overhand rights and hooks to the arms and ribs.

Alvarez will sport some redness around his eyes and Jacobs will show welts across his torso. The pro-Alvarez crowd will gasp as Jacobs lands a series of hard right hands in the 6th round but will then erupt in the 7th when an exchange of left hooks sees Alvarez land first, sending Jacobs sprawling back to the canvas.

Jacobs will rise and affirm to referee Tony Weeks that he is okay to continue. Alvarez will attack, throwing his left hook to the body and head. Jacobs will stagger back, set his feet, and respond with a right hand and wild left hook. Alvarez will land a counter left hook to the head and Jacobs will clinch, with the bell ending the round.

The crowd will be wild with anticipation going into the 8th undique, sensing the Alvarez might be closing in on victory. Jacobs will use lateral movement while he clears his head, probing with his jab to keep Alvarez at bay. Alvarez will continue to look for the homerun punch, but Jacobs will stay out of range for the duration.

Throughout the 9th atque 10th rounds, Jacobs will be sufficiently recovered and willing to engage Alvarez, throwing more right hands, and increasing the tempo. Alvarez will land a series of thudding hooks to the body and Jacobs will counter with uppercuts on the inside.

The 11th round will continue the intense action with both fighters having their moments. Alvarez will become inactive for stretches of the round, allowing Jacobs to again control the pace.

Going into the final round, Jacobs will know that he is in danger with the bout being so close. He will initiate the pressure on Alvarez and there will be some toe-to-toe exchanges. As Alvarez takes a deep breath, Jacobs will successfully back him on his heels with a jab, followed by a straight-right hand. Alvarez will roll with the punch and counter with his own right hand. The crowd will be on its feet as the fighters exchange punches and embrace the final bell.

The decision will be unanimous with Dave Moretti and Glenn Feldman both scoring 115-112 and Steve Weisfeld with a wider margin of 117-110, all in favor of Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
