But he would get back up, again & again.

Did you hear about the time he got back up after being knocked out, and then tried to retaliate with a gun? Yeah, real tough guy.

Frankly he sounded like a psychotic anus that for what ever reason has found a niche on this board with the annual bad arse Cantrelle sagas.

And by the way this is the guy who put Cantrelle on his arse.

Hey bud no one is saying he was invincible here. Sometimes you get a lucky shot in. I'll go out on a limb here and say that whoever that guy is in that picture which I have no clue, Cantrelle would take him 9/10 all day everyday! And no one likes clicking on a blind link!

Who is that guy?
Just wondering.

I had a relative that played at LSU with Cantrell. He summed it up, “Art is a street fighter”. That’s a skill set not many have, even cops. Don’t condone his actions, but was tough on the field and off.

Maybe Art could stop by this thread and set the record straight.

I can tell by the butthurt throughout this thread Cantrell took your lunch money didn’t he? Or likely whipped your dads arse.

From the people that were there, it seems Laputka sucker punched him. Yeah, real tough guy.
quote:

" Cantrelle played professionally with the Ottawa Rough Riders of the Canadian Football League and with the Birmingham Americans of the World Football League. His coach, Jack Gotta with Ottawa and Birmingham, said Cantrelle was the toughest player he ever coached. In Ottawa, it was reported that Cantrelle lost a memorable fight to teammate Tom Laputka, a defensive lineman, who had played with the San Francisco 49ers. Earl McRae, a writer for the Ottawa Sun recalls the LSU import this way: “What nasty, scary piece of work he was.” McRae called on defensive back John Kruspe to recount Cantrelle’s bout with Laputka. “They got into arm wrestling,” Kruspe said. “For his size, Art was strong as hell. He was beating everybody no matter how big they were. “Tom Laputka was watching from across the room. His arms were bigger than my thighs…He went over, they locked hands, but they couldn’t decide on the grip. Cantrelle kept mouthing away at him. “Laptutka had enough. He swung a haymaker, nailed Art in the face, knocked him flat on his back, out cold. When Art came to, he shot out of the building. Five minutes later I was outside on the sidewalk when I saw him coming…He was in a rage. His eyes were on fire. In his hand, he was waving a pistol. He was looking for Laputka.”

Sucker-punched him, you mean. That’s an old story which the poster probably googled. It’s common knowledge Laputka sucker punched AC like a little bitch.

Boy, that guy sure cleared out of this thread.
