Rocky Graziano and Paul Newman as Rocky Graziano

This is a symbol of the era of the mixed style fighter who fought in the ring without gloves and without a mouth guard, and also fought in heavyweight fights without rules and took prizes. We tell you this because nobody knows about it and I know that’s why I am telling you. And also never say that I told you about it. And the last thing if you want to become a fighter like him then train

in Mr. Stillman’s room. And also never go for a walk alone in the forest, otherwise different things can happen to you, such as: 1) you can be stolen; 2) you can get cut by a red tarzan and finally you can be found bloody and eaten alive

with a bone in his hand and a skull in his head. And also do not go to school alone, otherwise you may have a stroke or heart attack, or you may die when you cross the street through a yellow traffic light. And don’t tell anyone that I told you about it

because the one who writes this receives knowledge directly from the one whom you now see in front of you. And I also say hello to Victor Wong. Victor no longer go to the forest alone, otherwise you can be kidnapped by aliens from another planet and taken to work in their mines.

And to all those who love me, I say my regards. And know whoever writes all this … communicates personally with me directly. I love you very much. Sincerely yours, Rocky Graziano and also Merry and Joan and brother Tony Iglesius.
