Dwight could have been very decent, but like many of the the heavies of his era he was a lazy unispired *****. I had BIG hopes for Alex Ramos myself but he too fell short. Bit of a mad rooter tho.
Ramos also had great personal charisma, and could have been a tremendous superstar. (He was also fluent in Spanish, something which could have boosted his popularity significantly in that culture as well.) Superb hook.
Would you beleive me if i told you Ramos at one time was rated by the Ring as quite likely having the hardest punch with either hand in the 160 divison?? :yikes I still remember the stories surrounding his first loss to trailhorse Teddy Sanders. Ramos was sneaking out his window at night going over the the girlfriends for some mad rooting :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl I'm sure that was the story, care to qualify me
I wasn't following the Ring at that time, so will take you at your word. I do remember his hook taking out a Cuban in the amateurs. I don't recall that, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least. My sister and her girlfriends were all a-twitter over him.
Take both to the bank friend. The ring mag was the yearly or whatever where they had EVERY top 10 fighter summed up. Arguello on front i reckon.
Would've loved to see Howard fight a Saoul Mamby, or Billy Costello, maybe that title may have come around.
Hearns is great and a real legend,but those loses to leonard and Hagler kept him from becomming one of the greatest ever.
I'm on my cell I browsed thru quickly. Tony Ayala Jr - though he went bad still he would of been something special. For some reason I am now thinking of large juicy Tits.
Bernard Taylor-superb boxing skills, along with very fast hands, but didn't fight the top competition, and lost out in the end. If he had, would definitely have been a champ, and great.
