The soon-to-be not-so-Round Mound of Rebound has been training at Joltin' Jabs (4313 Main) in Manayunk. Barkley told us that he'd read in our column that "Joltin' " Joey DeMalavez had recently trained NBC 10's Vai Sikahema for what turned out to be his first-round knockout of Jose Canseco.
"My doctor told me I was a Happy Meal away from diabetes," Barkley told us Friday. "I have to get my fat ass back together," he said. Barkley says he was 330 pounds, but is now closer to 300 and plans to work with DeMalavez throughout the summer while he's living on the Main Line. Barkley notes that boxing's a lot different than when he used to get in fights while playing in the NBA. "When I was on the Sixers and got arrested all those times, none of those people ever hit me back. It was always little guys that messed with me," said Sir Charles, who's getting used to getting hit back.
Wonder how long it'll be until Damon Feldman tries enlisting Barkley for a Celebrity Boxing match.

Dan should get on this diet as well instead of posting boring stories.— mahorn- Maybe Joey can teach him the proper technique for throwing someone through a picture window. There's a right way and a wrong way to do that.— Patrick M

- Dan. Local radio DJ's, Lawyers, and TV reporters are not celebrities. You are lower than D-List and get no information. Lets start a predictions thread. This weeks column will include: An actual celebrity spotting from G Lounge A story that appeared on NY Post Page 6 a day later Something about Terrence Howard A Larry Mendte Update A blurb from a press release that was issued weeks ago A local lawyer or radio DJ sitting outside at Rouge Please add the others. This column seems to form a pattern— PaHoops
- I was spotted having leftovers of my wife's eggplant parm by my desk this afternoon. I ate it fast, because I was hungry and left no tip. No word on how long I'll be here but my sources say, "sometime around 6".— Patrick M
