Braddock was 44-23-4 when he upset Max Baer to win it all. Jimmy was no kind of journeyman when Loughran schooled him in Tommy's final LHW...
Okay, I've found some of Arguello-Busceme. Alexis didn't get hit much in this one, despite being faced with a fast and mobile southpaw cutie who...
Not any more. I've made my pick, admittedly something of a leap of faith, but I have committed myself to the view that Arguello turns him into a...
