    Looks like a small version of Foreman now.

    Speaks a hell of a lot of sense though especially about Hattons corner men.

    He never was the most articulate of speakers so I didn't expect much from him there, but what he had to say was worth listening to.
    Lloyd Honeyghan was a very fine fighter indeed. If he was at his peak right now, he would be one of the top fighters in the world.

    Guess you never saw Honeyghan/Marin then!;) Honeyghan/Blocker was hardly a thrill a minute either.

    Lloyd was your classic hot and cold fighter; for all the fights that sucked you had the brilliance of the Rosi, Curry and Hatcher fights.

    I'm remember the Blocker fight being poor.

    I don't need to go through Lloyd's CV as that is a matter of public record however one thing is clear he was the genuine article a legitimate undefeated and undisputed world champion. I was a big big fan of the great Don Curry. I don't think the Lone Star Cobra lost because he was weight drained rather the Raggamuffin man was a man possessed who was going to walk through fire to take the belts. He fought the very best, he beat the best and lost to the Best. He had a classic career high level of competition. Need I say more. Great great fighter by British standards a very good fighter by world standards.

    Does Anyone Remember The Vaca Rematch, Lloyd Threw Everything Into That Fight Until He Stopped Vaca.
    If Vaca Could Have Weathered The Early Storm I Dont Think Lloyd Would Have Had Anything Left And Vaca Would Have Won.
    Great Career And A Great Character!!!!!
