NYS Golden Gloves champion -- light heavyweight, cruiserweight, and heavyweight. Since hanging up the gloves, he runs these crazy 32-mile races. He thinks he's funny when he comes here, puts 120 lbs of weight on his back, and sprints around my (large) lawn, yelling, "C'mon old man! I'll get you in shape!"
