    Ever changeable
    1 Fletcher KO Singletary just pure unadulterated violence . what boxing is.
    2 Briscoe KO Guttierez knocked down rwice in 1st Benny levels G with a low blow after the bell. In the second he finishes it. What fighters do.

    I think 1978 Pipino Cuevas does. The Cuevas of the Ranzany fight was great.

    Moore Durelle is unbelievable. There is a great book you should get called " The Fighting Fisherman" about Yvon. It is awesome.

    Nipper Pat Daly was a British boxer around the 1910s - 1920s. Probably the youngest pro ever. Extroadinary talent. He was basically world level boxer at 14 - 15.

He made his professional debut at the age of nine or 10, achieved widespread fame in his mid teens as British boxing's 'Wonderboy', then retired from pro boxing at age 17. '
