    Ok i wondered if you were sticking with 147. To be fair i think the only time he was rubbery legged at 147 was in the SRL fight.

    Was he tested in other Welter fights at the elite level? He was an uncommon offensive force and not many Welterweights could manage to make his shortcomings matter.
    Going into his Match with Ray Leonard he was a bit Foremanesque...so to speak.

    True, true. Not many were going to bother him at 147.
