Good points, he was still awful and inept. I was a bantam and wonder if I couldn't have beat him in a four rounder.
I think Jack would easily pick off Ali's jabs and right hands so I wouldn't include him in the five. Louis also to me would have been easy to...
I see him on the level of Scotty LeDoux who drew with a before his prime Spinx and a long after it Norton. Along the way Scott also had wins...
Cheater? Zivic would have laughed at that one. Pep is thought to have tossed one bout though he never gave a hint to admitting it but there...

McGovern was Fleisher's all time #1 bantam and as Burt said was thought of as a big time knockout artist. Did that include enough power to make...
The thing I would criticize him the most for is one of the things he advocated the strongest, his sideways back foot. His reason for it was...

Great posting as always Burt!
