I personally loved his iron chin and workrate, I think he deserves a spot in the top 100 ATG. Anybody else agree?
He's gotta be up there somewhere. Maybe a few spots higher than Phillip N'Dou, Duilio Loi, and Carlos Gerena.
He was an ordinary fighter. A ten round fighter with average speed and below average power. Had a few good wins. That doesn't make him an ATG. Most fight fans today barely remember him.
i heard he had a break down and was sectioned or something. i know he went to prision for domestic abuse.
he was the first guy to stop arturo gatti. that's got to count for something. blue collar thru and thru. very skilled. made the most of what he had. never in a boring fight. he had some very good wins. he was also the first guy to beat julio diaz.
