...that he "felt, and was, better" than he had been in ten years. He flexed his arm, and his biceps were hard as the heel of his shoe. (He works with dumbbells every morning.) I think he'd love a chance to take someone on and show how much of the boxing cunning he has kept from the days when he held the championship of City College...
