Summary

This week, we go back in time to look at man who had it rough. He had over 100 boxing matches, back before we even knew what CTE was, the 1920's/1930's. This all resulted in bizarre behavior, culminating with a jealous outburst at both his mistress... and her mother. He admits to the crime, but will his diminished capacities keep him from hanging in London's gallows? This is a wild & crazy ride through history!!

Go to the bathroom in a freezing hole in the ground, fight so much that you barely know where you are, and shoot to kill with Del Fontaine!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!
