    Throwing in Ken Norton was a nice way to try to throw us off but I smell a bait thread

    Al Singer, Ruby Goldstein, and Art Aragon, one of the biggest draws in California - ever!

    Danny was pretty close to greatness. He certainly had his moments of greatness.

    Maybe the most underrated fighter of his generation.

    Yup. Getting beaten by the likes of phenoms like Terry Norris and Roy Jones when they were their primes is nothing to be ashamed of... Castro has tons of good, solid wins across several weight classes as well, and hit like a mule. And that chin... night indestructible until he was a bloated mess of an aged fighter all the way up at cruiserweight. And even then it took a CTE inducing beating to get him to finally go down. Born and bred tough, that guy.

    I think Romeo Anaya qualifies. I get a ton of traffic for this video almost exclusively from Mexico. Still obviously a very popular figure down there.
