That article has to be 17 days too late surely, Felix Sturm and Arthur Abraham! I didn't know we were being graced with 3 of the top 10 middle weights of all time in our generation; we are indeed lucky
The writer, Lee Groves, seems to have been taken on as The Ring's historian and his articles are usually rife with inaccuracies. That seems to be a hallmark of Michael Rosenthal's tenure as editor.
Darcy wasn't even champion because politics and untimely death got in the way. By the Rings own standards Sturm and Abraham have never been champion either, what the **** is going on? :-(
