    I remember Arguello stopping Noel without much difficulty if memory serves me correctly.

    Yeah but Noel had a great victory in Sept 1981 for the WBA Lightweight title stripped from O'Grady when he beat super hot "Super Gato" Rudolpho Gonzales. Gonzales was being compared to Duran and Noel completely shut him down.
    Camel of course the first cruiserweight champ lost to the great Carlos Deleon a great early cruiser on the walkout bout after Duran-Leonard 2 in New Orleons Nov. 25, 1980.
    And of course George Chip, besides being Middleweight Champion, invented chocolate chip ice cream at the United Dairy Farmers in Ohio.

    I saw Paul Weir live at Whitley Bay ice rink on an undercard headlined by Chris Eubank in 1995. The place didn’t fill until the main event so my brother and I took seats in the VIP area until we were chased out of the seats. But I was ringside for the entirety of Weirs fight. It was a good standard but not that exciting.
