I beleive Mike had a drug problem. After all, he was an Ayala:yep I do not believe even for a second that he was high during the fight.
There is 0% chance that Ayala was smacked up. He wouldn't have made it to the ring, 0% chance!!!!!!!!!
In my first post I made a wise crack about how I haven't forgotten this fight. However, it does not get the attention it deserves. I've seen some pretty lame stuff on ESPN Classic Boxing and on Ringside Classics, but I've never seen this fight on either show. It is certainly worth viewing.
When Danny retired Boxing Today magazine did a big article on his career. The name of the article was: Danny "Little Red" Lopez: Knock him down, he'll get up and kill ya!
