    last man standing was Hill.
    Of his time he was the last still to be champ. Holy was the last other fighter of his time, out side Hopkins....odd to forget Hopkins, but Virgil was there before him.
    He lost a tough fight, to a tougher pressure man with double coverage and short sharp punches. Hill was forced to go wide and couldnt drive his jab through the double pressure.
    Arslan is 37 and is now World Champ.He deserves it, a gym animal, 100% condition is why he wins.
    Hill tried everything in his 30 years of boxing experence...amature counting.
    Arslan first put on a boxing glove at 18 and immediatly did a Viciouse Boxer and bragged he was going to be world champ...and was called down on that for years.
    Well he is World Champ, he beat a very good Virgil Hill. Forced Hill into the infight and beat him at it.
    Arslan is also left hander, so that was a bit of trouble with stepping on feet.
    Hill has nothing to be ashamed of, and it was not exactly age that beat him, though a young Hill might have been that bit faster. Arlsan's double coverage and short punches and glued on pressure would have given him problems....getting on a bike don't help much...the other guy got a go cart.
    Hill took his loss as a true Champion.

    Hill should have retired 5 years ago and It has got me beat why the hell he is still fighting a young Hill in the early 90s would beat a guy like this with one arm.
