    How many people agree with this analogy, and try to explain your answer in the best possible way. Thanks.

    I assume from the responses that Lederman was smoking some serious **** when he came out with this one?

    Ive been trying to look for the quote Addie...where did it come from?

    Wouldnt mind seeing the context he said it in...did he mean stylewise? because of his achievments? his heart and fighting spirit?

    I cringe a little when somebody calls a fighter the next "insert name here"..Dont know, just dont like it..even though Im sure Ive done it myself.

    He said it live on air, I think it was against Jesse Magana.

    If you yell it loud enough, it must make more sense.

    Well, patient counter-puncher but fairly aggresive, could fight with the best of them but was also a decent boxer.

    Still not sure though.

    Barrera a bit nuanced (as he progressed), Tiger stronger and a harder hitter. IMO anyway.

    Not a great comparison IMO.

    If that's the case, then Barrera's next fight says all you need to know about Lederman's comparison.

    He was talking style wise I believe, as Greg says, patient counterpuncher...stalking his opponent. And how every shot he threw was with bad intentions.
