Looking back, I'm almost happy I lost that fight. Just imagine if I would have come back to Germany with a victory. I had nothing to do with the Nazis, but they would have given me a medal. After the war I might have been considered a war criminal.

I had a happy marriage and a nice wife. I accomplished everything you can. What more can you want?

All these people under age 50 are going to think my dad, Max Baer, is a total pig,

Jesse could fight in Germany in July. There's talk of a big pay-per-view card in Idaho and he could be on that in August against Cleveland Corder (Brinkley has stopped Corder twice before). Or he could face Joey Gilbert, in Reno, in August or September.

In Germany they have to really try if they want to recreate what happened in 2002 in South Korea or in 1998 in France. They have to prove that the World Cup will be as good as the expectations.
