The fact I know something about the guys history and have read most books written about him means something.
Slade was more than an actor when he stepped into the ring with a man as fierce as John L
Whether he was a great fighter or not, the point is that he wasnt white. I dont know is the North American posters here know who the Maori are, but I can assure you that the are very proud and tough people... it is not just a "county" of NZ - these are men who have maintained their cultural identity over centuries and who taught the English many lessons in the art of war. And they dont consider themselves as "white" and neiher would John L have done.
