He was one of my favourite fighters when he was active.

That said, he was mediocre.Bad balance, poor skills and one of the overall slowest middles i've ever seen at any level of ability.

He had solid power and was a big strong middleweight with a good chin.Threw a very nice uppercut with both hands, but that was it really.He would have been lucky to hold a Euro title in a deeper era for the regions middles(almost any pre-mid 90s to be honest)far less get to world title shots.
