    Good fighter. Fought World champions Saad Muhammad (scored a knockdown), Galindez, Marvin Johnson and top contenders in Briscoe, Lonnie Bennett, Jerry Martin, Willie Monroe, Tom Bethea and countless prospects.
    Here´s an early ko win:

    Saw him fight Matt Franklin on the Duran-Viruet undercard. Classic. Wish it was on film

    Michael Spinks can say he beat Marvin Johnson who beat Billy Douglas who's son beat Mike Tyson.

    He did, but is was controversial after Douglas almost stopped him. Ref stopped it too early
