    And I'll be sure to weigh in on that one Vic. Corro was the Jimmy Young of the middleweights.

    True, but his style was the Mendoza school type that was scorned by fighters such as Victor Galindez to be too negative and "bloodless", meaning too concerned with defensiveness. A boxing head back in the late 70's noted that Corro was the "Jimmy Young" of Argentina.

    Well, Corro got the decisions that he won, Young wasn't so lucky.

    I might've mentioned it in this thread already, but I thought Corro was robbed against Antuofermo, even though he basically "fell apart" over the last third of the fight.

    He easily landed on Vito and was beating him until he just quit fighting.
