Carlos Hernandez wasn’t a bad prospect actually. Didn’t go too far but he had a little potential. Unbeaten in his first 15 or so fights before another Cooney opponent named Eddie Greg handed him his first loss. Michael spinks also used Hernandez as a sparring partner in preparation for Tyson
Thanks for the Vid! I enjoyed watching that! I used to box in the Army. I'm a big guy, similar in size to Gerry, This middleweight used to give me all kinds of trouble in sparring. Man was he hard to hit.
Carlos Hernandez was not a "tiny man." He was 200-210 pounds, but looked tiny next to the very tall 6'7" 230-pound Cooney.
