Some Westerners believe that things must be made "easier" for Khrushchev by the West if he is not to fall prey to neo-Stalinist reactionaries. Moscow often seems eager to encourage this view, even though officially it has pronounced Stalinism as dead as Old Joe himself.

Some of the opponents were easy marks-and his list of conquests included such improbable names as Black Power, Mighty Joe, Super Human Power and Easy Dynamite (whom he kayoed in one round).
