    That a man who got knocked out in his first fight would later become the highly regarded number #2 p4p fighter of all time and would get knocked out only ONE more time, in his career.




    And yes, I'm talking about Henry Armstrong.

    He was an amazing fighter. I’d like to spend more time studying him. Believe he was simultaneously holding titles in three classes at one point.
