Third Uncle
Almost zero mainstream interest in this one, but there's something of a narrative to be teased out from Floyd Patterson's nephew fighting Roy Jones tonight. The tricker part of it would be somehow making Boise a pivotal part of the story, like say if Floyd Patterson changed trains in Boise once and met a guy in the station who taught him back up his jab, or if he maybe told somebody that he'd buried a box of gold somewhere nearby before moving on to his destination. These scenarios and more would be a little more interesting than billing the fight as, and here I quote, "Hold Nothing Back!" - presented by Xyience, Inc. I mean...honestly.
