Al -- I bet you and I both saw this fight, courtesy of gillette blades. Paret died and Griffith was forever haunted. Since then, I always wondered why boxing still got called "the Sweet Science ". With all due respect, Dave.
Grifith's trainer was a school teacher by trade. He said Emil lost his ability to finish fighters after the Paret fight.
Who was he?
At first i thought Lou Duva,but then I remembered Gil Clancy.
