OTHERS COMMENTS: Drunken, overweight longshoreman with decent punching power and suspect cardio condioning.  Entered BKB at the age of 13 with no formal training and no fighting experience.  Known to train on beer and pizza and eat whatever, whenever he wants.  Can easily win the worst haircut and the worst physique awards.

A TYPICAL BRAWL:  Lousy, unskilled pug swing wild for 30 seconds and then have nothing left.  Them he is wore down and his opponent can hitting him at will.  NO defense in the truest sense of the word.  Sometimes scores an occasionnal win when his opponents tire themselves out and then knock them down.

INDESTRUCTIBLE:
Uncanny ability to absorb punishment, probably the hardest chin and hardest head ever and a rock hard indestructible body.  Never been KO'd, TKO'd or KD'd a single time in the Round Cage or in sparring.  Even devastating puncher like Virgil Jones and Chris Theophelos couldn't put him down.  

Doctors examined him and X-rays proved that his skull is of extraordinary thickness, perhaps twice that of the average man. It was deduced that he isn't subject to the concussion effect of the blows which knock out the ordinary fighter, and when he said he didn't feel the punches he is probably telling the truth.  And the X-ray of his head also displays that his brain is cushioned by a layer of fluid 1/8th of an inch thicker than normal, thus acting like a football helmet.

He also possess a smooth rubber oily skin protecting him from danger like a cocoon.  An unbelievable texture and strangely enough, his skin secretes a fine oil.  His skin is probably a big part of his secret.

To condition and strengthen his neck, he uses to do wrestler's bridges. 

FEATS OF TOUGHNESS:
As a BKB sideshow act, Rubberball subjects his belly to physical abuse that would put the average man into hospitalized traction for days – if not weeks.  One of his act is to challenge the spectators and BKB brawlers, one or two at a time, to punch any part of his body even the solar plexus with dozens of blows.  Allow spectators to jump on his stomach, to be struck repeatedly by a two-by-four, a baseball bat or a sledgehammer.  And men with a battering ram to charge at his belly.  All that with a perceived imperviousness to pain.  His most famous stunt is to receive a 104 lbs cannonball shot by a 12 ft cannon on his unprotected stomach. Which would likely kill or severely injure an average man.   And demonstrate his mettle by running headlong into the iron door of the BKB SLAUGHTERHOUSE.

He is the BKB chief sparring partner.  Was the sparring partner of Milton Savage for over an hundred 10-minutes brawls but isn't anymore, since he proudly said that he once knocked Savage down.  He is currently the sparring partner of Virgil Jones, Alfonso Alderson, Chris Theophelos, among others.  And, needless to say, never goes down.

Taunting that he was never knock down and challenging anyone to try him in his $15000 Knock Down Challenge.  He is a great draw in BKB for his showmanship, courage, tenacity, his unseen stunts, and superhuman ability to absorb punishment.  Everybody wants to see if he will ever be knocked down.  And who's the man who could put him down.
