I actually think Saxton was a pretty good boxer, and effective spoiler. But this is a horrific fight for him. I doubt he can quell Leonard's flash the way(on film) he apparently stifles Gavilan (if we just take it on face value) and he'll get badly hurt when Ray finds his way into the fight. Leonard KO11 Saxton
I have it on good authority that the gavilan fight was daylight robbery. Obviously I sell saxton a bit short by assuming he can only win when the fix is in, after all he did get inducted so he must have had something about him.
