We're gonna start off with Frank Essex. Frank Essex.
Take it easy, Petey. Jeez. Frank Essex, Daily News.
A lot of reporters here today, a lot of people interested in this fight.
What do you got to say to your fans today, Jimmy?
I guess I'm... I'm grateful for the opportunity.
I know that these days not everybody gets a second chance.
I have a lot to be grateful for.
You know, I have three beautiful, healthy, troublemaking kids.
And, you know, I have the prettiest wife a man could wish for.
Bob Johnson, Boston Globe.
Two days ago we ran a story about you giving your relief money back.
Can you tell our readers why?
I believe we live in a great country.
A country that's great enough to help a man financially when he's in trouble.
But lately I have had some good fortune and I'm back in the black,
and I just thought I should return it.
Listen, what's the first thing you're gonna do if you make world champion?
First thing? I'm gonna have to go and buy some turtles.
I said to the kids when I was leaving the house this morning
that I was gonna bring back the title,
and they thought I said turtle.
So, naturally, I don't... I don't wanna let them down.
But if I could bring home the title and a turtle, they sure would be tickled.
You got that? Title, turtle. Right?
- Jake Greenblatt from Chicago Trib. - Hello, Jake.
It's been a while. What's changed, Jimmy?
I mean, you... you couldn't win a fight for love or money, right?
How do you explain your comeback?
The truth is, Jake, for a number of years there, we, we was fighting injured.
I broke my hand. More than once.
I got in a car accident one time I was on the road, and I had to get that fixed.
I had a run of bad luck.
And this time around, I know what I'm fighting for.
Well yeah? What's that, Jimmy?
- Milk. - Milk?
- Sporty Lewis, New York Herald. - Sporty.
Actually, my question's for Mrs. Braddock.
Mrs. Braddock, my readers would love to know,
how do you feel about the fact that Max Baer's killed two men in the ring?
So, how do you feel about that, ma'am?
Are you scared for your husband's life?
She's scared for Max Baer, is who she's scared for, Mr. Lewis.
