i heard his name as a power punching lighweight in some of the old boxing magazines but he was probably more known for his fights against fellow hard hitting freddie pendelton for the ibf title.
Grossly overhyped; fought no one, then the moment he met anything resembling quality (Paez) he was found out. Yes he could hit, but he lacked the killer instinct, and quality needed at the top level of the division.
