    Overrated Flea! Galindez was a monster! Here's a highlight of him wreaking havoc.

    Victor was way on the downside when he fought Rossman. Don't forget Yaqui's total destruction of Mike (and his family of questionable morals.) My $0.02
    **** on Rossman...simply another talent that pissed it away with 'inner-demons'

    You can triple up on 'uninspired'.

    A very good fighter, who could have easily been better.

    Not what 'Great' Champions are made of.

    What discouraged Eddie vs Galindez was that quick right hand counter in the 3rd (or 4th) that decked him right after he had Victor hurt against the ropes with a body shot. Victor showed how dangerous he was then and it out Eddie into a cautious mode after that, although he kept it close.

    Eddie Gregory had everything going for him in that fight with Victor Galindez.

    Youth, strength and confidence. The 25 year-old Eddie, believed he could
    not be beat, and could walk through any 175 lb. Light-Heavyweight's punch.
