Agreed. Out of interest, was 40lbs a miscalculation, deliberate exaggeration or were you under the misapprehension that Trinidad's "natural"...
It depends on your style, of course. You're very tall for a Minimumweight. Ricardo Lopez is the obvious place to start. Zarate is another tall,...
I have a vague recollection of reading an article of the top 10 earning British fighters of the previous year. 9 were either world champions or...
