maryportfuncity 10,657 Posted December 20, 2007 Re the tin leg there's a great story about Sonny Liston and Reg. Liston complained that his 'the bear' nickname was stupid because black men have less body hair than white men. Reg bet him that Sonny had more hair on his leg than he did. Sonny took the bet and when they rolled up their trousers Reg - of course - won the bet. Liston apparently almost doubled up with laughter. Lost that there leg to a German mine whilst storming a beach didn't he? Wiki page is a bit sketchy, just says b 1924, nowt on his current health. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
