Kennedy McKinney - UNDERRATED OR WHAT?!

:rofl

 

A decent enough post.
With hindsight, it's probably a bit of an overstatement to call McKinney an all time great - I guess this term is chucked around like confetti when reminiscing about favourite fighters of old - and the fact that his career at top level was shortend by his dalliances with illegal substances does nothing to enhance his reputation.
That said, I find it rather sad that this fine fighter is rarely (if ever) remembered as anything other than 'an opponent' for Barrera et al nowadays, which I think belies the immense talent he had.
