Love the old-timers? Cyber Boxing Zone has some knock-out chat going on about all the greats.
There's plenty of discussion about "Sailor" Tom Sharkey, of course, and many of his ring rivals - and about the book "I Fought Them All".
Check out these three threads if you'd like to join in.

They were ring rivals at the height of their success and friends for 50 years.
They died within a few weeks of each other in 1953.
