From the page: “Former welterweight Luis Resto has acknowledged that the beating he gave the late Billy Collins Jr. in 1983 — in which, over 10 rounds, he pounded Collins with tampered gloves that each had two inches of padding removed — was even worse than previously believed.

Resto, at a news conference on Thursday in New York, acknowledged that the tape used to wrap his hands in that fight had been soaked in plaster of Paris, giving him a pair of hardened casts underneath his unpadded gloves.

Collins suffered from blurred vision and depression after the June 16, 1983 fight. He died in a car accident about nine months later.”

Okay, there’s devil like faces in the smoke. The thing is it would only be curious if there weren’t faces in the smoke.

Go and look at any naturally chotic or fractal piece of design, for instance a head of broccoli – faces everywhere. What’s next religious websites claiming broccoli to be the Devil’s vegetable?
