When I was about 16, I came home one afternoon and looking out the kitchen window I saw this guy out in the apple orchard with my dad. They walked around to the front of the house, the guy got in car and left. Dad came in and saw me, said, "You know who that was? That was Carmen Basilio." Didn't mean a thing to me til I saw his picture in a magazine shortly afterward.
Helluva nice guy. All the heart in the world. Held 2 weight classes at the same time.
Later in life he had a restaurant. Walk around and talk to folks.
"You like that?" Pointing to your plate.
If ya did he'd go and get you some more. Lol
Lead with his face. Never wanted to be in the ring against him.
