This is true. There was a boxer Chuck Wepner, who was known as the Bayonne Bleeder, having lost on 2 occasions with Cassius Clay. He retired after he got his butt kicked several times. We lived at 44 east 39th. Ole Chucky Boy retired from boxing and bought "Bar 39"on the corner of 39th street. He had a bully daughter Charline who was a few years older and the bully of the block. Mom had given me for Christmas and my birthday my first Flexable Flyer for for both occasions. The day after Christmas I was trying it out when Bully Charline scratched my face took my sled and say I couldnt do anything cause I didn't have a father. She also scratched my arm and face when I tried to get it back. I was so ashamed and was embarassed I didn't to tell Mom. In Mothers' intuition and seeing a scratch on my cheek! Moms knew everything. She went up the corner to Bar and Chuck the Bleeder said his daugher mearly want to play with. Mom showed him the scrathes and wacked her right in the head right in front of dad. I felt a million dolars that we wooped the Wepners. Nobody messed me again!!
