    Yes he was a top- puncher,though Mendoza disagrees.

    Yes he did, as well as being the only man to stop Briscoe!No I'm not joking Mendoza doesn't think Monzon faced a big puncher ,and that he always had significant size advantages over his challengers ,even though I 've corrected him on it several times.

    I'm sure I've read of him being listed somewhere in the Top-50 Punchers of All Time - more than a couple of times.

    Anyone who could do what he did to Briscoe is a puncher in my book.

    McVey, Mendoza regurgitates that same size crap in every Monzon thread. You're correcting him again, but he'll parrot the same **** again in a future thread.
