    Just finished Sweet Thunder, Wil Haygood's terrific new bio of Sugar Ray Robinson. No love lost between Basilio and Robinson. RIP to a guy who was part of the Boxing Hall of Fame's inaugural class of inductees.

    I saw the thread and thought this was Laverne's boyfriend. Then I remembered his name was "Carmine". Carry on.
