Yeah I'd agree that he isn't a top level puncher, I wasn't disputing that. You might be right that he isn't 100% ideally suited to exploiting...
Ah sh*t. Bollocks to old age. Great fighter with a very underrated body of work, especially below lightweight. Very unlucky that he peaked at the...
It visibly jumps out at you with excellent/great swarmers like Frazier, Fenech, Armstrong, Harada etc. There's something impressive though about...
