Default A Black Eye For The Sport?

The photo of Steve Mocco's face after his bruising battle with Tommy Rowlands seems to be getting some attention. It was posted at a Yahoo wrestling group... and it is now on the AOL home page.

It makes me think of a comment from an old-time boxing champ -- I think it was Jack Dempsey -- who, when asked about his bruises and black eye after winning a bout, said, "You should see the other guy!"

Mark

PS I'd attach the photo but I can't seem to be able to attach pics anymore
