    I know he was in shape, former boxer and Marine,
    But the dude weighed like 130 pounds yet he was always reffing HW fights and he would get down and dirty in the clinches with guys like Tyson and Holyfield etc and push them around like he was their daddy....
    I've seen much bigger refs afraid to get in between the action like that.
     
    Smoochie and Pugguy like this.

    Strong enough to get respect from heavyweights when he broke up the clinch

    His strength was as the strength of 10 men because he was pure of heart.
