    Lloyd Honeyghan probably still has nightmares about him.

    Honeyghan's jaw was messed up after it.

    Starling was a skilled guy. Inconsistent, but he had a lot of ability. I thought the first fight with Curry was very close. He improved by the time the rematch happened, but so did Curry.

    Airtight defense. The only clean punch he took his career was landed after the bell it feels like looking back.

    He was knocked out cold by a punch after the bell by Molinares. Starling didn't even remember getting hit.

    Marlon: He didn't hit me!
    Merchant: Yes he hit you. If you don't remember, it's a sign that you were knocked out.

    Marlon: Do I looked glazed or wobbly to you?
    Merchant: You only have to be down for a count of 10.
    Marlon: I wasn't knocked out....I wasn't knocked down!!

    :lol:

    listen to the interview after the fight then you will understand.

    i should suggest that no koed fighters gets interviewed after the fight.

    audley did a similar thing when he said "i think i could of continued" after gettign sparked. you could hear barry mac in the back ground chuckling
