If he wasn’t fed to the top 2 heavys from the time in his first two fights, of course. Did he have the talent to be a top heavy with the right management, or was he a bust?
NEVER. He played his hand perfectly. He went farther than he or anyone else could ever have imagined. Well, he. like everyone else had imagination and that was what spurred him on, but he went farther than he could ever have expected. I think he was well satisfied with the way his boxing career turned out. And make no mistake, he was the one who planned and executed the whole thing from start to finish.
