The phrase "loose cannon"
originally referred to a ship-board cannon coming loose from its tethers. Due to the pitching and rolling of a ship at sea, the cannon would roll unpredictably around the ship. This was incredibly dangerous for the men. Not just from the obvious threat of crushed legs or death from being hit by a fast-moving, uncontrolled, several ton weight of wheeled metal doom but also from the very real threat of it falling down a hatchway and thence straight through the bottom of the ship.
This is how I imagine a fight between Al and Bobby. An unpredictable, incredibly heavy mass bringing with it the severe risk of crushing death to innocent bystanders.
I have read only one of those books.
