Bear did you ever see the episode of "The Simpsons" where Homer becomes a boxer and faces Drederick Tatum, a loosely based character on Mike Tyson?

Haven't ever seen it. The Simpsons never really grabbed me.

I figured to give it a stab since you are doing fiction fighters of TV and movies. If you ever get a hold of that episode, maybe you could rate Tatum.

He's a natural choice. On my agenda. I'm even tempted to do Clyde.

Why don't you take a stab at him and post it here. Drederick Tatum is too good of a name to keep out. Found a pic.

Here is another of Joe Kirwood in his Palooka Role. I think the character being nailed might be Tiny Morrow.

He's not tall enough to be Hal Baylor's Pinky Thompson.
