    Do you have ever watched his fights with leon spinks and jimmy young? I never found these fights.This guy started his career like a strong cruiserweight until he lost against camel fighting for a cruiser title.
    He stopped spinks.
    What do you know about him?

    His biggest victory was Leon Spinks at his worst. That's about it.

    I remember him. A, all action, no frills, popular TV fighter for a time if I'm remembering correctly. I believe he had a short bout early in Foreman's comeback attempt where Rocky absorbs a sickening amount of punches from Foreman without actually going down..... He was a damned tough man. Fight always sticks out in my mind for it's brutality, despite its relative briefness.

    Even taking an older Jimmy Young the distance multiple times shows, competitive on points, indicates some ability.

    He was outpointed by a shot Young around 1986.

    He kod Leon Spinks right after Spinks had taken a beating against Dwight Qawi.

    I saw him fight Foreman in late '87 on ESPN. He took a beating from George but never went down. It was stopped as he took a shellacking on the ropes.

    He was extremely tough but had very limited skills and was slow

    A Scott LeDoux type, but worse overall.

    What I remember about the Foreman fight is that George weighed around 245 lbs. George was hardly ever that light again or ever.
