    i agree with benny briscoe, that was a very very good fighter.

    i keep thinking that andrew galota should have been a champion some how by now.

    Good shout, i remember him being compared to Ray Leonard. His fight with Oscar showed DLH's struggles against speed.

    Often criticised and rightly so, but is Golotta in the mix?

    He had a win over Bowe in the bag twice.

    He has an argument for having bested Chris Byrd.

    Why did he never manage to pick up a belt?
