    Trevor Berbick said after being KO'd in 1 round by Mercado..."I proved I could take his best shot" :rofl:!:

    Bernardo Mercado was a contender, can't really argue otherwise. Mike Weaver apparently says to this day that Mercado was the best puncher he ever faced. Weaver fought Mercado a few months before Mercado KO'd Berbick, which by all accounts was a murderous punch.

    I think Leon Spinks's win over Mercado is underrated. That was a great performance from Leon. A very good fight.
