    But nowhere near the worst at light heavyweight. Tiger Jack Fox has that honorific nickname.

    Lol Or Whitaker the brawler, or Howard Davis Jr. The power puncher.

    Parlov was nothing more than capable. The decision he got against John Conteh was a famous robbery.

    Saad had a great chin that was not hard to find.

    Parlov was solid, but not an atg.

    That era was a golden age of LHW boxing. Unlike today, everyone fought each other making for instant classics.

    I'll never forget it Mac. Conteh boxed the ears off him. One of the worst decisions of the 70's.
