There will never be another quite like him.
I remember reading an anecdote about Gleason in his younger years. It went something like this...while doing his night club act, Gleason was continually being heckled by a fat, balding loudmouth in the audience. He finally had enough of the guy and challenged him to come out in the alley right then and there and settle the matter. Gleason woke up later in his dressing room. The loudmouth was New Jersey heavyweight brawler 'Two Ton' Tony Galento, 80-26-5 with 57 knockouts.
