Quote :
Promoter Lou DiBella, about Bert Sugar: "The Bert Sugars and the Angelo Dundees, you don't replace them. That saddens my heart, because the business has become less colorful and less fun. Bert Sugar was a brilliant guy. I mean, he was erudite, he was well read. He knew everything about so many things. Bert managed to make a living by simply being Bert. He was a celebrity by being Bert. That hat, that trademark cigar, those crazy pants. There wasn't a bar stool that he didn't like, and there wasn't a guy that didn't like sitting next to him. I'm proud to say that I sat next to him at many a bar stool."
