    Yes he was a top- puncher,though Mendoza disagrees.

    You're joking, he did have Monzon down as well didn't he?

    Yes he did, as well as being the only man to stop Briscoe!No I'm not joking Mendoza doesn't think Monzon faced a big puncher ,and that he always had significant size advantages over his challengers ,even though I 've corrected him on it several times.

    I'm sure I've read of him being listed somewhere in the Top-50 Punchers of All Time - more than a couple of times.

    Anyone who could do what he did to Briscoe is a puncher in my book.

    McVey, Mendoza regurgitates that same size crap in every Monzon thread. You're correcting him again, but he'll parrot the same **** again in a future thread.
