    The Gomez-Zarate bout. Two undefeated, killer punchers. it was like a spaghetti western almost,...one of them had to go...and lightning struck first with Gomez. BTW, knock out that damned pneumonia Bazooka!!

    It started there, Geralds blinking and thinking there was a pain above his left eye in his very next fight after Julian 1 even though he was just grazed there by a punch.

    Hide--Vitali is another one not mentioned. there was no way that fight was ever getting to the 5th round.

    Another one not mentioned is that Shavers/Mercado bout. No way that was going long.


    Mugabi--Hargrove. With that stare down and a Philly guy fighting a hitter, that translates to zero jabs. Never going to go 2 rounds. Same with Mugabi--McClellan. Man, Gerald looked twice the size of Mugabi in there & looked literally like a big lh going against a middle.

    If he wouldnt have collapsed that would be regarded as an all time great fight.

    you could tell had Barkley landed clean on Benn that Benn would have been knocked out, but Benn was so much faster in that fight.

    I had never seen that Sanders-Rahman fight before, that was a SLUGFEST. Good pick.
